INTRO 37 38Hello SourceForge.net Users, 39 40This week we've made a big announcement. As you likely know, any 41large dynamic website is powered by a database that funnels data to 42the web servers serving data which ultimately gets sent to you. 43These databases manage everything from user authentication, session 44management, site searching, etc. SourceForge.net is a database- 45dependent website. 46 47Today we have announced that we are moving SourceForge.net to DB2, 48a powerful relational database by IBM. We are doing this because 49the site continues to grow at a rapid rate, with 700 new users and 5070 new projects a day, and we need a database that can handle this 51growth. We feel that DB2 can do this for us, and IBM is giving us 52the resources to make this transition successful. You can read the 53press release here: 54 55http://www.vasoftware.com/news/press.php/2002/1070.html 56 57How will this effect you? In the first phase, you won't see much 58difference other then the site will continue to grow and the 59SourceForge.net team will be able to handle the growth. In later 60phases you will see new features on the site that take advantage of 61the databases advanced capabilities. 62 63Today our mail archives have been converted over. The rest of the 64site will make the migration to DB2 in the coming months. 65 66If you have questions about this or any other aspect of the site, 67please feel free to email me, pat@sourceforge.net. I always 68appreciate the feedback. 69 70Thank you for your continued support of SourceForge.net and the 71Open Source Community. 72 73Pat- 74 75Patrick McGovern 76Director, SourceForge.net 77 78 79 801. INCREASED DOWNLOAD CAPACITY 81 82SourceForge.net continues to grow, and it's appetite for bandwidth 83is never-ending. Every day SF.NET serves over 300,000 files to 84ensure that developers and end-users within the Open Source 85community can always obtain the software released by hosted 86projects, SourceForge.net maintains a network of high-capacity 87download servers. These servers are located throughout the world, 88as to provide better download times regardless of which network 89provider you are using, and regardless of your geographic location. 90 91Three new download servers have recently been added to our network, 92further strengthening our file serving capabilities. These latest 93additions include servers hosted by: 94 95Time Warner Telecom (Wisconsin,USA); 96http://www.twtelecom.com/ 97 98University of Minnesota (Minnesota, USA) 99http://www.umn.edu/ 100 101CESNET (Czech Republic) 102http://www.cesnet.cz/ 103 104We thank these sponsors for their commitment to SourceForge.net and 105the needs of the Open Source community. 106 107On a related note, we are looking for a mirror in Japan.

I didn't subscribe to this list!!! 246You spammer. I hate you! I hate your dog! (insert other colorful 247phrases here)". The truth is, when you registered on SourceForge.net 248there was a check box that said "Receive Site-wide updates, low 249volume". You left it checked when you submitted the registration form, 250hence you are receiving this email. We send these updates every 4 to 6 251weeks, so it truly is low volume. However if you want off, this is not 252a problem.
