[WikiCaretakers] Wiki Server Switch this Thursday

Hello Caretakers,

in order to decomission one of our failing virtualisation servers we are
going to move the wiki to another virtual host.

The move has already been prepared, a copy of the wiki is running on
scheele.fsfeurope.org. The switch will happen as follows:

1. We will disable the wiki service currently running on indium.fsfeurope.org.
2. We will synchronize the latest data set via rsync (updating the initial
   sync that has already taken place)
3. We will update the DNS record for wiki.fsfe.org, which should already have
   a low TTL

Step 2 will probably require less than two minutes. The wiki will be
unavailable from step 1 onwards until the time it takes for the DNS record to
propagate to your respective nameservers. Hopefully this will be less than 10
minutes.

We will start the migration somewhere between 15:00 and 17:00 hours CEST on
Thursday (that is Berlin/Vienna time ;-).
