I can access the wiki, irc logs, and pipermail.  I can send mail from the
host, and I can send mail through the host.  I was able to send email to
one of the mailman lists, and it successfully made it into the archives
and sent back out.  I tested the docs builds, but it went to the old
server.

The only thing I haven't checked is local git, and pushing to github.  The
latter I'm sure will work; the former is most likely to work.

Thanks.  Hopefully Geert and Fell will chime in.

My plan is to keep the old server running at least for a few days on a
private address until we're sure everything is behaving on the new server
and I didn't miss moving any data across.
