I clicked the News entry for 1.35 (http://boost.org/users/news/version_1_35_0), but when I follow a link for any of the new libraries I just get a blank page, e.g. http://boost.org/doc/libs/1_34_1/libs/asio/index.html You might want to fix that... -- Staffan Gimåker On Saturday 29 March 2008 17:32:30 Rene Rivera wrote:

Let's go over the repointing of the DNS entries to make sure I do the right thing. The current relevant A record entries are:
beta.boost.org -> 129.79.245.252 boost.org -> 66.35.250.210 live.boost.org -> 129.79.245.252
So to repoint, I'll change the boost.org entry to 129.79.245.252, right?.
Yes.
Do I then delete either of the other two entries?
No. We still need the beta.boost.org as that is truly a separate site in that it reflects the beta state in SVN. And it's the one we will test changes out in before moving them to the live site in an ongoing basis.
OK. The release files are on Sourceforge, I've downloaded each and compared to the originals, and AFAICT we are ready to go live. Just let me know when to repoint the DNS entries.
The release date is today.
Repoint now :-) I'm working on making minor changes to add the 1.35 links into the web site (on the beta side). So I'll move those over shortly.
Done.
And I just merged the changes to make 1.35 appear into the live site.
boost.org is getting the new site. So far www.boost.org is still getting the old site for me, but hopefully that is just until some dns cache entry expires. Easydns says it takes at least an hour for caches to clear. There wasn't any A record entry for www.boost.org, by the way.
I still get the old site :-( But my ISP has always been slow in getting DNS changes. I checked on the web server itself and it says:
-bash-3.00$ host boost.org boost.org has address 129.79.245.252 -bash-3.00$ host www.boost.org www.boost.org is an alias for vhost.sourceforge.net. vhost.sourceforge.net has address 66.35.250.210
So yes, there's no A record for www.boost.com, as it's an alias record.
