Change Log (/root/ChangeLog)

• Jan 1, 2012: Season's greetings & a happy new year.
• March 13, 2011: DVOI.COM systems in Tokyo seem to have survived the earthquake this time, but we're uncertain if we can conitunue running the servers. Japan's nuclear power plants are unstable, so there may be sporadic power outages in the coming weeks. UPS's are standing by, anyway. However, we won't be able to take another hit like that. We are trying to migrate some of our services to locations with a more solid infrastructure. Thanks for your continued support.
• January 21, 2011: While this server is being reconfigured, z.DVOI.COM and art.DVOI.COM have been put online.
• January 2, 2010: We've finally reached 2010 but have no HALs or Monoliths.
• January 1, 2009: DVOI.COM wishes you all a very successful new year!
• December 21, 2008: The server systems underwent severe crashes. Some services still remain unavailable. They will hopefully be restored shortly.
• February 2, 2008: DVOI.COM celebrates the fifth successful year - live long & prosper.
• February 28, 2007: Replaced the gateway router that some say went “kaput” earlier this year.
• February 28, 2005: Renewed the server software, hardware, and backup scheme for improved fault tolerance.
• January 25, 2004: Added some 500+ user-contributed pictures to the pseudo-random image server found on the DVOI.COM home page. The server simply depends on the system's rand() generator.
• January 12, 2004: Installed and configured a multimode HTTP server for DVOI.COM. It automatically recognizes small-screen browsers built into popular mobile/handheld devices and shows Web pages in simplified format suitable for such devices. We're also looking into the possibility of better supporting Braille browsers. Support for multilingual pages is also available.
