This is a work page for the XSF's Infrastructure Team.

Mission

The XSF's Infrastructure Team is responsible for maintaining and improving the machines, software, and other tools used by the XSF to deliver its websites, discussion lists, chatrooms, and other services.

Migration Plans

As of July 2024, the XSF's services are split between cloud providers and hosted services at USSHC. We are planning to move all of the hosted services to cloud providers in the coming months.

The breakdown of services is roughly as follows:

Service Current Future Notes
Domain Registration Dotster TBD Peter would like to move this to Cloudflare or Namecheap because of cost and convenience, but is open to other options.
DNS atlas + ik.nu See below for options. There are several machines hosting DNS.
Mail USSHC See below for options. This line is for email aliases such as info@xmpp.org - not mailman.
Mailman USSHC See below for options. Jerry is willing to host this longer.
Web Digital Ocean No Change N/A
XMPP Digital Ocean No Change N/A

DNS

Discuss DNS here.

Several options have been mentioned:

Mail

Peter suggests that we set up a single inbox with one of the following providers (about $50/year):

We would then set up aliases for the following addresses:

  • abuse@
  • dns@ (if needed - TBD)
  • info@
  • privacy@
  • registrar@
  • sponsor@
  • trademark@
  • treasurer@ (if needed - TBD)
  • xmpp@

Mailman

Here are some service providers:

Note

Much of the following information is out of date!

Current Projects

Services

  1. In order to be listed here: http://xmpp.org/resources/public-services/
  2. An operator should do the following: http://xmpp.org/resources/public-services/registration/
  3. And then we should do this: http://xmpp.org/resources/public-services/verification/

We should automate this. Mitchel Constantin, David Banes and Mike Taylor have expressed an interest.
