+<PRE>Hi,
+
+Software being what they are ( ie, more buggy than what we would ), we
+have to upgrade them fairly often.
+
+Some upgrade requires services restart, and some requires reboot.
+
+Common knowledge would tell us that we should restart it on night ( or
+evening ) to minimize disruption for users. But this approach cause 2
+problem :
+- we are a global community, meaning that the sun always shine somewhere
+- in case of problem ( like reboot ), we will have to wait longer if we
+do not take in account the opening hour of our hosting provider ( Lost
+Oasis &amp; Gandi )
+
+So I propose we do the various reboot and upgrade at noon, Paris time,
+or around 17h, so we can see if someone can go to take care of the
+servers at marseille ( Lost Oasis ).
+
+For the gandi vm, I must confess that I do not know if :
+- we can get some kvm access
+- we can upgrade the kernel ( since everything is still running a older
+version of mandriva, I suspect there is a reason )
+
+
+Now, on the topic of update, the various repository installed on server
+are quite inconsistants. Some of them have backports, some of them
+don't. Some have non-free, some don't. So I think we should :
+
+1) decide on what do we need exactly
+
+2) enforce this by puppet
+
+3) decide how we handle update ( especially the update of backports )
+
+Opinions ?
