A reminder to all: all UCD-hosted servers will be going down around  
16:00 Irish Summer Time on Wednesday of this week (the 25th) and will  
be unavailable until *Friday* late afternoon.

This means that *all* Mobius servers will be unavailable, including  
the ESC/Java2 repository, all SRG servers (including email) will be  
unavailable, etc.

Sorry for this unavoidable service outage, but they are doing  
something critical with power in UCD's server room.

One final reminder: all UCD servers will disappear in about 4 hours,  
and will be offline until midday on Friday.
