Hello Android Team,
For this past weekend, there was scheduled an LDAP authentication upgrade for review.android.git.linaro.org - sorry, it wasn't announced to the list, because it should be pretty transparent change, so I just got an ack from Vishal on IRC.
However, the migration was postponed last-minute because new auth setup requires having SSL on review.android.git.linaro.org, and we lack it there. It's not enabled because it has pretty deep 5-level domain name, we never had such a wildcard certificate, and apparently never ordered a dedicated certificate for it. During last year or so we actually gave up many 4-level domain names, by switching to use dashes as separators instead of dots. That's more cost-effective and much easier to maintain and avoid situation with expired certificates, etc.
So, what we'd like to do is migrate Android services to contemporary Linaro naming convention either. It would be:
review.android.git.linaro.org -> android-review.linaro.org android.git.linaro.org -> android-git.linaro.org
Note that older names will remain active and will be supported indefinitely. How it will look like, is that if you access review.android.git.linaro.org via web browser, you will be automatically redirected to android-review.linaro.org. Access via gerrit, git, ssh will work as before.
Overall, the upgrade should be seamless, but as there will be several moving parts, there may be risk of something breaking for short periods of time. So, we would like to make sure that there're no concerns and that e.g. end of next week is good time to proceed.
Thanks, Paul
