The Romanian Educational Network (RoEduNet) is organizing its 5-th International Conference in Sibiu, Romania.

The purpose of this conference is to bring together the academics and the companies in a discussion on computer networking, in its technical, social and strategic aspects, with a special focus on directions and applications in education and research.

The conference is organized by RoEduNet Bucharest Branch Romania and "Lucian Blaga" University of Sibiu, together with IEEE Romanian Section.

We hope to see you soon at the 5-th International Conference in Sibiu,

RoEduNet Iasi Online Archive has been restored. The downtime took less than expected. All services (ftp,http and rsync) are running.

Monday, 27/Mar/2006, ftp.iasi.roedu.net will be shutdown, somewhere between 20.00 and 23.00 (Europe/Bucharest), for hardware changes.

We are currently working to provided mirrors to the 3 BSD's:

• FreeBSD
• OpenBSD
• NetBSD

on our servers. One of them (openbsd) is already in place on ftp.roedu.net. The other 2 are in progress. We'll make a public announcement when all 3 are ready.

A OpenBSD mirror has been added on RoEduNet Online Archive.

In his commitment to the OpenSource community RoEduNet had expanded the debian-security mirror from RoEduNet Iasi Online Archive and added a OpenBSD mirror on RoEduNet Bucharest Online Archive. If there is something you think worth mirroring please let us known at the usual contacts:

• ftpadmin - iasi
• keeper - bucharest

I have some big news today. The new ftp.roedu.net is live and ready to serve. The new machine is a dual xeon with more than 3TB of storage. For the moment only a few mirrors are available because the old machine had only 300G of storage. More mirrors will be added these days. The web interface of the new ftp.roedu.net has been set after ftp.iasi.roedu.net. Now both looks the same and use the same software for syncing mirrors (simba).

The other event is that planet.roedu.net has been moved to a stronger machine and should work better now. If you notice any slowdowns please let me know.

Yup. We're back. The php had some problems, and all we had from apache was SEGFAULT. More news will come ;)

 planet.roedu.net is a website were people working at Romanian Education Network, posts news, articles and host their blogs.

 A little history first. At the beginning planet.roedu.net was created by Radu Spineanu from RoEduNet Timisoara. The website contained (at that moment) two rss sources :

• Subredu Manuel 's blog (aka diablo)
• Radu Spineanu 's blog (aka sradu)
