I notice the GJS docs are down. I wonder why that is.
It’s also down for me. Also GitLab is down. Infra team is aware.

I can’t access multiple gnome subdomains including extensions and gitlab, though thankfully discourse seems to work. I’m getting 504 gateway timeout errors, specifically.
I can get on the status page which shows everything as operational, but the tooltips also state the last checkin was August!

I know that the two infra guys are unpaid but that Status site is a joke. Last time that the systems got down for many hours (which I don’t remember exactly when) no one updated the “Past Incidents” section.
Right now, we don’t have a clear idea about the situation of the infra when we eventually need. Seems to be something limited to Matrix/IRC circles.
The status page is currently disconnected from the monitoring watchdogs as part of the migration of our infrastructure, so it’s not going to be helpful.

Please would you be able to update the status page to clearly indicate which things are disconnected, so that they don’t say “operational” in green, and add a link on that page to official announcements about the migration progress and planned timelines? It should help prevent more forum threads like this one.
As mentioned in above link by Ebassi, GNOME infrastructure is transitioning from RedHat’s data center to Amazon AWS, which is a big migration.
If keeping status.gnome.org updated during this migration can be achieved with little effort, we should do that. Else, I’d suggest the Infrastructure Team to disable the status page (as it’s misleading) and communicate via GNOME Discourse posts, which should be good enough (given the time and resource constraints of the Infrastructure Team).
No official communication (as in this case) is not good though, especially when the outage lasts longer.
Can you make a separate post on this migration link (similar to twig posts) ?
What happened wasn’t really part of the migration or planned, it was more related to what I outlined at GNOME Infrastructure migration to AWS · Andrea Veri's Blog aka technical limitations of the current infrastructure architecture. We’ll be looking at fixing the status page very soon, we’ll make sure to announce services migrations as they go when it makes sense to do so, some services can be easily migrated without anyone noticing while others (looking at you GitLab) will require proper communications to be sent out.
