      Kill the mailman2 server and put the mailman3 server in its place · 893a95f3
      Kristian Klausen authored
      With the final lists migrated to mailman3[1], the mailman2 server can
      finally be killed.
      
      When the mailman3 server was initially setup[2], it was done on a
      separate server because the mailman and mailman3 packages conflicted,
      and the traffic was routed over wireguard (HTTP, LMTP and SMTP).
      
      Instead of installing mailman3 on the original lists.al.org server and
      transferring the data, it was easier just to install the missing pieces
      (basically Postfix and adjusting the Nginx configuration) on the ml3
      server and move the IPs (to keep the IP mail reputation).
      
      So basically the following was done:
      - The IPs for the original lists.al.org was moved to the mailman3.al.org
        server
      - The mailman2 datadir was transferred to mailman3.al.org server, so we
        can keep the pipermail links alive, and import missing mails if needed
      - The original lists.al.org server was decommissioned
      - The mailman3.al.org server was renamed to lists.al.org
      - The missing pieces was added to the mailman3 role (basically Postfix +
        Nginx adjustments)
      - The mailman role was deleted and the mailman3 role renamed to mailman

      Avoid single point-of-failure for our GeoIP domain · aa359082
      Kristian Klausen authored
      We don't want mirror.pkgbuild.com's DNS server to be a
      single-point-of-failure, so this commit adds multiple authoritative DNS
      servers for the zone. The extra DNS servers are run on the geomirror
      servers.
      
      The _acme-challenge zone, used for obtaining certificates, is run solely
      on mirror.pkgbuild.com's DNS server, to avoid syncing DNS records
      between the servers (KISS).

      Add GeoIP domain for our sponsored mirros · 9f65f99c
      Kristian Klausen authored
      We had a GeoIP mirror in the past based on nginx and its GeoIP module,
      but it didn't perform very well, due to the high latency (asking a
      central server for the package and then redirected to the closest
      mirror).
      
      One of the reasons for offering this service, is so we can relieve
      mirror.pkgbuild.com which is burning a ton of traffic (50TB/month),
      likely due to it being the default mirror in our Docker image. Another
      reason is so we can offer a link to our arch-boxes images in libosinfo
      (used by gnome-boxes, virt-install and virt-manager), with good enough
      performance for most users.
      
      This time we take a different approach and use a DNS based solution,
      which means the latency penalty is only paid once (the first DNS
      request). The downside is that the mirrors must have a valid certificate
      for the same domain name, which makes using third-party mirrors a
      challenge. So for now, we are just using the sponsored mirorrs
      controlled by the DevOps team.

      tf-stage1: standardize on TTL 3600 for DNS records · 2d1e9b57
      Evangelos Foutras authored
      Almost all of our DNS records have a TTL of 86400 (24 hours) with a few
      using a TTL of 600 (some MX and TXT records). The former is too long to
      be flexible when a need for fast change(s) arises, and the latter don't
      benefit from the low TTL. Standardize on a TTL of 3600 (1 hour) for all
      our records.
