Pressnotification: After a period of unfortunate problems with our previous main server, we decided to try to move to a new location, the new server is located in California and has proved stable enough so far.

In addition parts of the code has been refactored, and made more robust. For more details, check the Changelog.

Linux: PowerPC-version of Ubuntu from version 7.04 inofficial
The Technical Board has decided that from version 7.04 the PowerPC version of the Linux distribution Ubuntu has only the status "inofficial".
This means that in future the Community Team is responsible for the PowerPC version and therefore this version may has a slower development than the official version if the team cannot perform tests and bug fixes in time.
The previous PowerPC versions of Ubuntu will be supported in limited time. As an example Ubuntu 6.06 LTS on PowerPC-servers will be supported until 2011.
