svn.python.org was deliberately not brought up again.  The backups
were a few hours behind and missing the ~10 most recent commits.  Not
disastrous, but it could probably mess up people's SVN trees, so after
some IRC discussion, the decision was to wait until the original disks
are available again.  That will probably not occur until Monday, maybe
Tuesday.

I'm still waiting on a replacement controller, so it wasn't to be today.

Hopefully tomorrow, if the hardware supplier has one in stock. Still no

news on whether we have any chance at all on getting the old data back.

 

The new card had to be ordered (and I couldn't find any other place that had them in stock) bit it should arrive tomorrow or thursday. On the plus side, Martin found out there should be no problem with just inserting the card and having it detect the RAID, so as long as the dying card didn't write garbage to the disks we should be back up and running quite fast.
