[Bf-committers] Release & web upgrade status

[Ton Roosendaal]

Hi team,

--------------- Server migration project:

- Yesterday: The hardware arrived. Freebsd is being installed on it.
- Friday (feb 9) servers will be moved to the XS4all (sponsor) data  
center.
- Bart has working prototype of blender.org in new typo3 already
- Monday feb 12: Bart installs new typo3 and new blender.org (he  
scheduled weekend trip with wife... so!)
- Tuesday/Wednesday: testing, fixes, content conversion
- Thursday feb 15: LAUNCH!

--------------- Blender release

I would suggest we also launch Blender february 15th, meaning that next  
sunday or ultimately monday we have to freeze cvs entirely, to allow  
the platform managers to build the binaries, and everyone else to  
finish up release logs.

The GE Python crasher was solved. There seems to be an ugly windows  
crasher still, this is being verified now, but check it nevertheless:

Later more,
