Not sure how often I said this already, but please use vmweb for

I sent out an email on the progress of the vmweb decom + cleanup to
haiku-sysadmin and haiku-web.
It's been mentioned that vmweb is on it's last legs multiple times by
multiple people.
What does that even mean? It's a VM, and it doesn't serve any real
purpose now anymore, what's the big deal?
it's a vm. I'm down for reinstalling it as a buildmaster... that was
always one
of the options. Just concerning when we're asked to use vmweb as-is.
We're not
sure it will upgrade properly at this point :-)
This entire process has been extended over months because the Inc. was
unable to get enough votes to purchase a new $20/mo VM anywhere "and
get
it done".
Nope, the entire process has been "extended over months" because the
Inc. sees no reason to buy more resources when we already have enough
that aren't used properly.
It's just the sensible and responsible thing to do.
Eh. I'm pretty sure nobody outside of the Inc. would be upset over a
$10/mo
vm until this stuff is cleaned up properly. I could have a set of
buildmasters
going in ~15 minutes.
Instead we've been forced to squeeze all this crap onto a 10-year old
abused VM running an unsupported version of openSUSE.
Hasn't it updated like the rest of the VMs? If not, why not? That's
*not* the responsibility of the Inc., btw. it just offers the
resources.
It hasn't been upgraded because there hasn't been a full-time admin
since
Olta left. (Just lots of part time admins (myself included))
Waddlesplash moving the site to netlify is a good example of better
hosting
options for some of this stuff that require a *lot* less upkeep.
Anyway, per the emails to haiku-web.. vmweb has a few more things that
need
sorted out before it can be decommissioned. Once those are sorted, we
can
get a new buildmaster vm in place.
