[AC-Admins] Services Update

	As you may or not know. The data center that lion and services is 
hosted in is no longer owned by Sequiam anymore. The new Biometrx 
company that purchased Sequiam's assets is in control of it and is 
trying to decide to sell it off to the new company Simba is associated 
with or with someone else. In the meantime they have locked access from 
the owners of that server, 'cause they have no way of proving who's 
server belongs to whom. Also, the company isn't paying for the bandwidth 
any longer. So there is no longer uptime guaranteed for the server. 
Which means at any point in time the server can go offline, without notice.

	In foresight of this, I went ahead and installed Anope on snowleopard 
once again. The databases have been rsync'd from lion at the top of 
every hour, so everything is for the most part up to date. Services can 
be started back up on snowleopard with just a simple command in my shell 
account. However, I feel we should get this done sooner than later. I 
will be pretty busy in the next week, which includes moving 620 miles to 
Chicago, IL. So I feel maybe we should go ahead and transfer services 
over to snowleopard now. So it will be taken care of while I am sure to 
be around. Then we don't have to worry about services being off-line for 
any extensive period of time.

	I can get this taken care of right now, but I wanted to pass this along 
you guys so I can get your opinion on it. What do you think?
