### AI overview

PINE64 announces a June 5-10 move of end-user services to the ROCKPro64 cluster. The forum, Wiki, chat bridge, IRC, parts of the support system, installer mirrors, and website may experience downtime, while the store, ticket filing system, and support emails are expected to remain operational. An update reports that the key community infrastructure was moved successfully by June 11, 2020.

### Source excerpt

The process of moving our end-user services to the ROCKPro64 cluster will be taking place in the coming days (5-10 June). I am not going to pretend like this is the best time for the move to be taking place, since it is not. Many users are relying on our infrastructure for information and community support, particular now that people are receiving their devices and many more are waiting for their units to ship. But things are what they are, and we have a strict deadline we need to adhere to. In practice, this means that at different times during this move key parts of the infrastructure will be down. This includes: the forum, the Wiki, the chats bridge and IRC, portions of the support system, PINE Installer mirrors as well as this website. It is not possible for me to say with certainty when exactly each of these community-facing services will be moved nor how long it will be down for. Obviously we'll aim to complete the process as quickly and painlessly as possible but unpredictable things can, and likely will, happen. I'll do my best to give you a heads-up when portions of the system are scheduled to go down for maintenance on Twitter and Mastodon. I'll also issue notices in the news section of the forums. Lastly, I'd like to note that the PINE store and ticket filing system, as well as our info and support emails will remain operational though the entire server move. Thank you in advance for your patience. [edit June 11, 2020] All key community based infrastructure has now been moved to the cluster. Moreover, the move went went surprisingly well and without any major hiccup. In the coming weeks and months we'll be adding more services to the cluster. I have already spoken to FireTwoOneNine about writing a short blog post about the cluster, its present utilization and future applications in the project. Lastly, I'd like to thank all those who offered advise and were directly involved in this project.

### AI overview

PINE64's November community update covers shipping progress for the Pinebook Pro, PinePhone developer edition, and PineTime development kits. It announces PinePhone Brave Heart pre-orders and another Pinebook Pro pre-order run, while also discussing planned infrastructure migration and reported hardware issues.

### Source excerpt

Our core focus for the past month was on getting the manufacturing process and shipping of the Pinebook Pro, PinePhone and PineTime development kits back on track. I will not reiterate the events that led to the delays of those devices in this post, but if you're interested then read the detailed account of what happened in last month's community update. With the Pinebook Pros and PineTime development kits now shipped, and with the PinePhone developer edition now shipping, I feel that we've done a good job in handling the situation. The big news for this month is that we will start taking pre-orders for the PinePhone Brave Heart edition on November 15 and that the next Pinebook Pro production-run pre-orders, offering a choice of ANSI or ISO keyboard, starts today. Let's get to it. [update 19/11/2019] I have now posted a follow-up to this community update on the forum; mostly containing information about the PineTime dev kits and PineTab availability based on your feedback. It can be read here. Here's the TL;DR: Our monster clusters; core community services will migrate to our own hardware in 2020 Pinebook Pros shipped; Last pre-orders for ~3 months start today (ANSI +ISO) We're aware of NVMe adapter & Trackpad issues, expect fixes soon OG Pinebook upgrade to Pro-esque setup in Q1 2020 PinePhones for developers (finally) ship November 5-18th PinePhone Brave Heart Pre-Orders start November 15th; delivery December 2019 / January 2020 PineTab production conundrum; state of software PineTime dev kits shipped; development proceeding exceptionally well Housekeeping Earlier this year we announced that we've built two monster ROCKPro64 clusters with the intention to host our website, Wiki, forums, CDN, Matrix instance, IRC, etc., as well as provide the community with an efficient OS images build server. We've have since been looking for a reliable host that would meet our criteria in terms of support, bandwidth, services and access that could house the server. Thanks to Gami
