For anyone that didn't see my email in the discussion list, there is a 
new web page in place to add/edit tier1 and tier2 servers -- 
http://servers.opennicproject.org/

Please note that your wiki username is NOT the same thing as your 
opennic members username.  If your servers have not been correctly 
assigned to your members account, please let me know your correct 
username and which servers are yours.

I am also working on a new script for notifying admins of server 
failures.  Since there were a lot of complaints about to many emails due 
to the original 2-hour notifications, I am bumping up the time to 4 
hours for the first email, and there will be another email at 24 hours.  
After 7 days, you will receive an email warning that your server has 
been marked 'offline'.  And after 21 days, you will receive a final 
email stating that your server is pending deletion.

I'm doing testing on the email script today, and will reply here to let 
everyone know when the script has started running.  The emails you 
receive will have the subject line formatted like this:

[OpenNIC Servers] ns1.al.dns.opennic.glue status: FAIL

and details will be inside the email including the IP address, down 
time, and a link to the server test page.
