On October 23rd the data center where our server is located had a power failure. The server was rebooted and at the first look everything was fine.
In the morning we noticed that the performance was bad and started to investigate and found out that one of the hard disks was failing.
The drive has been replaced and is now synchronizing.
Update: A few hours after the server was back online, MySQL found out that the bbs db had been corrupted. We have restored a backup from Mon Oct 24 09:47:59 CEST 2011. Unfortunately all forum posts made after this date have been lost.
We are sorry for the long downtime.

Summary: Please manually delete /etc/profile.d/locale.sh before updating. If . /etc/rc.conf fails in your login shell, please read the full announcement.
Changes to locale handling:
/etc/profile.d/locale.sh is now a static file that sources the correct config files in order to set your locale, rather than being generated at boot. The benefit of this is one less write to /etc, and it allows changes to the locale to take effect without rebooting (just relogin).
We add support for /etc/locale.conf. The settings in this file takes precedence over /etc/rc.conf, and those who use shells that cannot source /etc/rc.conf are required to move to this new format. /etc/locale.conf contains a new-line separated list of variable assignments. The variables we support are LANG as well as the LC_* variables (with the exception of LC_ALL). The format is shared with systemd.

The hostname utility was removed in net-tools 1.60.20110819cvs-1. The inetutils package, which was recently moved into the base group, will provide hostname from now on. Please make sure to install inetutils especially if you have problems with network utilities.

As promised multiple times on the forums, GNOME 3.2 was just released and we have it! Shinier and full of new features, noticeable are gdm's brand new look, gnome-online-accounts, gnome-contacts, gnome-documents, new user menu and better chat integration. Along with that, nautilus received a new file previewer named sushi.
Packaging changes:
If you have problems login into the session, try resetting your settings by moving away ~/.config/dconf and ~/.gconf.
As always, packaging bugs should be reported on our bugtracker and anything else considered bugs should be report to the Gnome bugzilla.

TeXLive has been updated to match 2011 release. The package texlive-bin does not include biblatex-biber, the Perl replacement to biblatex, as the required Perl dependencies as numerous and unpackaged at the moment.
It is possible that post-install scripts show errors during the update. Note that only the second "recreating formats" message is relevant (format recreation is triggered by both texlive-bin and texlive-core installs). There are reports of eptex format generation failing (see bug report FS#25250) on some upgrade paths, but the problem does not appear when upgrading from a fresh TeXLive 2010 installation.

Hi,
time for a much needed update to the Arch installation media, as the last
release (2010.05)
is not only quite outdated, but now yields broken installations if
you do a netinstall (because the old installer is not aware of the changed
kernel/initramfs filename in our new Linux 3.0 packages).
What has changed in this period of more than a year?
AIF (installation tool):
libui.sh (bash UI framework):
Archiso (image builds):
Obviously there's more, such as bunches of code cleanups and bugfixes, but this should be the most important.
The Official installation guide has been updated to reflect the changes where necessary.
Please assure tickets exist in the bugtracker - Release Engineering project for any issues you may find. To get in touch, join the arch-releng mailing list or visit the #arch-releng IRC channel

Due to Linux kernel version 3.0 being moved into [core], the kernel26 package has been renamed to linux. Also, filenames of the kernel and initrd's have changed as follows:
To prevent you from breaking your system after the update, symlinks are created so that your bootloader configuration pointing to the old files will still work. However we recommend updating your bootloader configuration and deleting the symlinks afterwards.

netcfg 2.6.6 has been moved to [core]. It has accumulated quite a lot of features contributed by many people since last year's 2.5.4. Versions 2.6.1 to 2.6.6 were bugfix releases to the initial netcfg 2.6.
More details about the changes and links to the bug tracker entries can be found in the NEWS file. Old profiles are expected to remain compatible.
Please read optional dependency list to know what to install for your particular configuration.
More features, mostly requested and contributed on the bug tracker will be added for release 2.7. Discussion about netcfg development and features now happens on arch-projects mailing-list. Don't hesitate to drop a mail there if you want to participate or contribute patches.
