Good afternoon,

We feel that the new Hugo site has reached critical mass on content and design.

In 30 minutes we are planning on switching over to the new website as we have
enough parties online and available to make the change.

Changes:
 * I'm going to temporarily reduce the TTL of www.haiku-os.org to 900
seconds. (15 minutes)
* www.haiku-os.org will be changed to a CNAME pointed at haiku.netlify.com
 * haiku-os.org will continue to be directed to www.haiku-os.org

Back out plan:
 * If serious problems are encountered we will fall back to the running
   drupal site.


Done.  There may be momentary outages as we tweak things, however
the major part of the move is complete.

There was a glitch at NameCheap which resulted in a missing www.haiku-os.org
CNAME record for around 15 minutes (They removed the A, but the new CNAME didn't
get picked up)  A chat with support fixed it.

vmweb.haiku-os.org is the old drupal site
www.haiku-os.org is the new Netlify site
haiku-os.org redirects to https://www.haiku-os.org via apache on vmweb.
