Hi,

The main, PECL, and bugs services are moving to a new machine, updated 
to the latest OS version with PHP 8.4. For this, I need to do the 
following tasks taking the services off line for 5-15 minutes, depending 
on DNS changeover times within the CDN provider:

- stop Apache on old and new machines
- switch DNS settings in CDN over to new machine
- run latest incremental backup on old machine
- restore latest backups on new machine
- start Apache on new machine

Please note, that while main is down, you also can not login to the 
wiki, or use it as a logged in user.

I'll let you know once the maintenance is finished. You can also see 
status at https://status.php.net

cheers,
Derick

This should now be complete.

If you find any issues, please raise a ticket at github.com/php/infrastructure (or reply to me and systems@php.net, if you must).

cheers
