Replace lemmonii with a VM
lemmonii is a laptop. People use it to run screen sessions for IRC. What else do people use it for? I have no clue, but we should find out about other use-cases.
lemmonii is also the only service hosted in the Cambridge office. This is problematic.
We should deprecate and replace it.
Here's the plan Weasel and I made, as best I can recall. (Weasel, please correct me if I am wrong.)
-
We should make a new VM for use as a lemmonii-replacement. (We decided that this is a better idea than recommending use of perldulce for IRC or any other iffy stuff.)
-
We should recommend that people switch to the new VM, and announce that lemmonii will stop running at a certain date.
-
We should turn off lemmonii at the announced date.
Elaborations welcome!
