Rakudo and MoarVM have been updated to 2020.11

Upgraded to OpenBSD 6.8!

Mail has been switched from the mbox format to maildir. Mail will now be delivered straight to your home directory, into ~/Maildir. You'll need to update your mutt configs:
set mbox_type=Maildir
set folder="~/Maildir"
set mbox="~/Maildir"
set spoolfile="~/Maildir"

I've installed a script to convert your mbox file to maildir. Just run this:

mb2md -s /var/mail/$USER -d ~/Maildir

alpine has been rebuilt with the maildir patch.

Added a new IRC client: catgirl

The upgrade to OpenBSD 6.7 was successful! The list of languages has been updated with the new versions that are available.

Redesigned the site. News entries are moved to a more visible location, switched to a more readable color scheme, and got rid of the logo image in favor of just text.

git repos can now be served via git.tilde.institute from your home directory! To get started, check the wiki page.

Some ssh host heys were regenerated and I also deployed SSHFP records. If you receive an error related to this when connecting, remove the old host key fingerprint:

ssh-keygen -R tilde.institute

Then connect and tell ssh to check the sshfp records:

ssh -o "VerifyHostKeyDNS ask" <user>@tilde.institute

Upgraded to OpenBSD 6.6. Everything went smoothly. Enjoy!

The server migration happened over the weekend, and there were very few issues resulting from the migration. Success!

We'll be moving to a much larger and more powerful server soon! Currently building it. We're hoping to have everything ready for next week.

Wow, we've hit 150 users! Also, we'll be upgrading to OpenBSD 6.5 on Monday evening around 10:00 PM US Eastern Time, or 2:00 AM UTC (Tuesday).

Welcome to the team, Kneezle!
