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
