Update on download.opensuse.org

We've restored user services to download.opensuse.org and are working to restore all services and add redundancy to the system. 

A few services have not been restored yet. Specifically, Publishing new Factory snapshots is disabled right now, and build server publishing is stopped. These services will be restored when the new system is fully integrated - which we expect to happen by tomorrow. We are copying content to the new system now, which will take about 12 hours.

When the restore is complete, we will also have added redundancy, so the problem of having a backup will be solved. This will also add mirror stage serving to the services offered by download.opensuse.org. 

In addition, we're re-examining the openSUSE.org infrastructure to ensure that we reduce the amount of overall downtime. This will be an ongoing process, and we will notify the community of progress here. 

Thanks for your patience while these issues are taken care of. Thanks to Peter Poeml, Nat Friedman and his team, Christian Schneemann, and everyone else who jumped to get this fixed as quickly as possible.
