We’re back
Jul 24th, 2008 by trilok
Sorry about the downtime. We were having problems with a server and it crashed unexpectedly. Everything should be running fine. If not, please send us an e-mail at staff@sccs
Sorry about that; there was a power outage on campus. We’re back up and running now.
Webmail, now improved!
Apr 23rd, 2008 by kit
So, many of you are no doubt familiar with our old Squirrelmail interface. Ugly, hard to work with, but it does the job. Well, now, we have finally set up a newer, better, faster, stronger (well, prettier, anyway) interface: RoundCube. Check it out.
Squirrelmail will still be the default webmail for a few weeks, just so we can see if there are bugs we need to work out with RoundCube. But soon, we’ll switch which is the default. Don’t worry, both will be available into the future.
Status of the Pit
Apr 18th, 2008 by kit
So, we had a pretty big and pretty good party last night, and to that end, got ahold of our old projector, and borrowed one from Media Services. This means that you can use the pit again, but until we get our projector fixed, the old one isn’t as high-quality.
But we have games galore on the lab machines now, including a Windows machine with a constantly growing selection. The pit requires a reservation, but the lounge is open 10am-2am every day (except Thursday, when it closes earlier).
Projector Problems
Apr 6th, 2008 by Miles Skorpen
Last Friday, the projector made a popping sound and has stopped functioning. We’ll be trying to figure out the problem in the next few days … but until it is fixed, the pit will be closed for business.
The video pit has just had a massive surge in popularity. We’re swamped with requests to use it. Apologies to any who we haven’t gotten back to; odds are, someone else has reserved it if you don’t hear back from us. We’re gonna have an online reservation system up soon. Check back here for announcements about that.
Migration successful!
Mar 17th, 2008 by kit
We are done the long-suffering server migration, and things are looking good. We now have two old servers, roc and osprey, to do something with. Playground time!
Sorry that the change took longer than expected; it always does.

Our login server is down due to a campus power-outage. Kofi should be going to restart it as soon as he can. Sorry.
