Re: REMINDER: PHP Mirror Overhaul: Phase Two - Ten Days Remaining

Dear Daniel, hk.php.net PHASE 1 , 2 , 3 have all been done, PHP version is now 5.4.3, would you kindly check it? For PHASE 4, we cannot find the instruction in the email, but we found "asia.rsync.php.net" in the new server, may I know whether I just need to change "asia.rsync.php.net" to "rsync.php.net"? Besides, I just received the "REMINDER: PHP Mirror Overhaul: Phase Two - Ten Days Remaining" on 6th May 2012 22:16 (GMT+8), but nothing more before that, will there be any problem for me to receive email from you? Please feel free to contact us if you have further enquiries, thank you.

     ALL:

     There are ten (10) days remaining to finish Phase 2 (upgrading

PHP) for official mirrors. The list below has been updated to reflect the two mirrors (TR and TR2) that have complied so far. As for extensions, IN3 was the only mirror to apply on time.

     I have gone through the waiting list and started to contact

prospective providers for replacements for those of you who have yet to upgrade or reply. Those of you who have indicated that you'll be upgrading prior to the deadline are still BCC'd directly, as well, so my apologies if you get two copies of this email. It's my intent to be thorough, not repetitive.

     In case some of you are having problems receiving emails from the

list, I'm BCC'ing all maintainers whose mirrors are listed here.

     Any questions, please contact me as soon as possible.  Thanks, all!

    Greetings, all;

    Today is the deadline for requesting an extension on Phase 2, as

outlined here:

        http://news.php.net/php.mirrors/39153

    Thanks to some great work by a lot of you, we've already made a

lot of great progress. Thank you, all.

    On 15 May, just 19 mirrors would be in compliance with the

requirements set forth in Phase 2. Today, that number is up to 49, with one extension already filed. However, 55 mirrors have neither upgraded nor filed an extension request. Because of that, I'll be putting out an open call for new mirrors to apply to the waiting list to fill the inevitable void.

    If you haven't yet upgraded your version of PHP to PHP 5.3>=

5.3.10 (>= 5.3.3 if using a distro package, such as RPM/DEB) or PHP 5.4>= 5.4.0, you'll need to either email me by 11:59p EDT tonight, or upgrade your version of PHP to at least the minimum versions shown here no later than 15 June, 2012, 11:59p EDT. Those who have failed to upgrade or file for an extension will be expelled and replaced as of 16 June, 2012. Those who file by tonight will be granted an extension to 30 June, 2012, 11:59p EDT.

    As of this moment, the following mirrors have yet to upgrade:

        AR
        AT
        AU2
        BG
        BG2
        BR2
        CA
        CA2
        CN2
        CZ2
        DK
        DK2
        ES2
        FI2
        FR
        GR
        HK
        HR
        HU
        HU2
        IE
        IE2
        IN
        IN2
        *IN3 (Filed Extension)
        IR2
        IS
        JP
        LT
        MX2
        MY
        PT2
        RO2
        SE
        SG2
        SI
        SI2
        SK
        TH
        TW
        TZ
        US
        US2
        US3
        WWW

    And the following REALLY outdated mirrors, which still run PHP

5.1.6 (which was the old minimum distro requirement):

        AZ
        BD
        CO
        ID2
        IR
        NZ
        PA2
        SG

    If your mirror is listed here without a star, you MUST either

email me ASAP (again, before midnight tonight) to request the 30 June extension, or upgrade to one of the minimum versions or better (the latest version is always preferred) on or before 15 June, 2012.

    As you can see, some entire countries are in jeopardy of losing

their mirrors. It was for this reason that the upgrade requirements were delayed, so that the waiting list had sufficient time to build enough of a roster of availability and eligibility. There may be a few cases, however, where a suitable replacement does not exist on the waiting list, however, which is why I'll be initiating an open call for mirrors. If you have additional resources in other countries and have not yet added your information for those countries to the waiting list, but would like to be considered, please submit your information at http://php.parasane.net/mirrors/waitinglist.php .

    Finally, if anyone needs hands-on help to upgrade their version of

PHP, please let me know. I can provide you with a special public key that I will use for this operation, or you can create a temporary password on your mirror. Simply create the account for me (danbrown), give it sudo access, and I'll take care of the rest. I don't expect many of these requests, though, because we're fortunate to have a very gifted talent pool in our mirror program --- you guys.

    As always, thanks for everything you guys do.  It is certainly appreciated.
