Adding a webserver

[mark]

Hi all,

Dreamwidth is seeing some extra traffic today, so we're rolling out a new webserver to handle the extra load. We'll be paying close attention to the system load though and will be doing what we can to make sure everything is speedy and working.

Also, today I am joined by my infant son Oliver, who is helping me with the servers. Hello from Mark and Oliver!

Just to let you know (and I'm replying to everybody in the comments here who's made similar comments, so please please don't think it's personal!) -- we're asking that people not make negative comments about LJ in the comments to our official communities, since we just don't think it's right to be encouraging that in our official spaces, especially since we literally could not exist without LJ having existed first and many people already have a negative impression of evangelism by people who support DW. I know emotions are running high and everybody's feeling very stirred up right now, and we don't want to make things worse in our official spaces!

Thanks :)

Did I mention LJ in that comment? I don't see any mention of anybody in that comment except Oliver. Hmm...

Hee. I'm just hitting everything that looks like it could be interpreted even close to LJ-bashing, since emotions are running very high and I want to try to head stuff off at the pass a bit. I don't want it to look like we're enabling snarking at LJ, you know?

Thanks for understanding!
