SI-LIST:
As many may have noticed, si-list was conspicuous by it's absence since
last Tuesday. This morning message traffic started to flow again.
There was a software problem with the list server at freelists.com
related to numerous filesystem locks that weren't being cleared for
unknown reasons. The sysops think it is related to some issue with the
reiserfs (which they plan on migrating away from sometime in the next
several months).
The list is running normally again, but since the real root cause is
still not fully understood, the potential for another 'deadlock'
situation is still there.
John Madden (the head tech guy at freelists.org) is monitoring the
situation in case the problem reappears in the near term.
Thanks to John and the other sysops at freelists.org for resolving the
problem.
