All of the Web3D Consortium’s websites and server architecture will be 
moved to a new server. The server will only host Web3D Consortium sites 
and material. The new server has been in test for the last three weeks 
and all known issues have been fixed. The final migration will move all 
existing content, including web sites, support files, email, mail lists, 
and documents from the existing server to the new server. This includes 
web3d.org and web3d2017.web3d.org.

During the migration all Web3D Consortium sites and accounts will be 
unavailable. The migration is scheduled to start at 18:00PST. If you 
have an issue with this date/time, please immediately contact Anita 
Havele, Vince Marchetti, or me. This message is being sent individually 
to the lists below. You will receive one message per list. Please do not 
reply to the list.
•    bod
•    cad
•    consortium
•    h-anim
•    med
•    x3d
•    x3d-public

After migration, the DNS entries on the legacy (current) and new server 
will be adjusted to account for the new server IP address. This will be 
automatic and take effect immediately. The change should be immediately 
apparent to all users because the cache time has been decreased for the 
last three weeks. If you using a non-standard IP caching arrangement, 
then you may experience some problems. The legacy server will remain 
unavailable after migration to minimize the chance of unintentional use.

If you have any questions, please address them to webmaster either 
directly or via the contact page on the site 
(http://www.web3d.org/contact).
