After 13 years the Debian-Administration website will go read-only at the end of the month. Then later in the year it will transform it into a solely static-site so that the articles, weblogs, and associated comments are not lost - and they can be served via single server or two. Mostly this is happening due to lack of new content being added and folks posting more elsewhere.

    Perhaps more importantly, how the hell does a site that isn't being actively used much need 10+ servers?

    Either no one is using it so it doesn't matter much if it goes away, _or_ it needs a lot of servers. Not both.
