Backports server being switched to FreeBSD?

[NaplesBill]

I just tried the backports repo and they are not working. I also tried to browse from http://backports.ubuntuforums.org/ by clicking on the line "You may browse the entire repository here." This is the message I get:

<D:error>
<C:error/>
<m:human-readable errcode="160029">
Could not open the requested SVN filesystem
</m:human-readable>
</D:error>

jdong is away tending to his life away from the backports for now. He may have a better idea of what's going on, since he deals with it on a regular basis. So on behalf of jdong, I say please be patient while he's away, and everything will get fixed as soon as possible.

ubuntu-geek is working on trying to get things going, but this is jdongs baby, and he knows what the baby needs when it starts to cry

Hello, the server actually hasn't been switched it still on the old server. The repo is currently working on the old server.. If it proved stable on the new server for the next 12 hours i'll switch it over..
