Redirecting planetpostgresql.org to planet.postgresql.org -- please update your bookmarks

When I started Planet PostgreSQL project about 6.5 years ago, we had only very few (almost none!) bloggers -- but we had to start at some point. As time moved on, lots of people started blogging, and we had invaluable blog posts about various PostgreSQL related topics.

When community decided to fork the planet project because of valid reasons, it increased the visibility of blogs, because it was also feeding postgresql.org main page. It also has more bloggers. However, we had tons of people who were following "my" planet, because they already bookmarked it and never ever heard about new planet.

Anyway, I'll keep it short: As of today, I will be stopping updating this planet. This will be the latest post on this planet. Please use http://planet.postgresql.org as the new Planet PostgreSQL URL.

I will redirect domains in a few months after making sure that (almost) everyone updated their bookmarks.

There will be no changes in people.planetpostgresql.org.

Regards, Devrim

Unfortunately http://planet.postgresql.org/rss20.xml stucks in Thunderbird with message "Verifying the feed..."

I was just told that there were some network issues to the datacenter where that server is in earlier today. It should be ok now.

Strange, browser opens rss url without problems. Thunderbird still fails...

I'm having the same problem. Thunderbird halts with that message. Any ideas of what's the problem?

why couldn't you just forward the old feed? all that changed for me as a reader is the url, it's stupid to require me to jump through hoops to resubscribe if you could just simply do it automatically
