Title: HLP found a new admin
Post by: Goober5000 on November 09, 2010, 10:25:52 pm: Please welcome rev_posix to the staff of HLP! :)

Many of you know rev_posix as the friendly hoster of SVN for multiple projects, including Diaspora, the FreeSpace Upgrade Project, Blue Planet, and others. (Here's your cue to respond to his generosity with a donation (http://revposix.penguinness.org/huh/) to the SVN hosting infrastructure!) He will now be further helping out around here by setting up FTP for new hosted projects, playing firefighter when the HLP server goes haywire, and similar tech-y things.

Not sure, depends on how badly things break I guess and how often. :)

General idea, as I understand it, is background when needed. I've got a pretty full plate already with the svn and things here on my end, so I can't devote a heck of a lot of time to HLP (and the user base here is pretty large and active).

April 1st
Talk like a pirate day

Also the following is always believable:

Goob did it. :p

Heh, I was wondering if anyone would try scanning it.

No, I don't have anything like that going on. It is a legit thing, and I do have the abilities one would expect, but it's not something that I actively do or pursue at this time.
