We are looking to turn off the

were a technology which worked about a decade ago but the upstream we
are using is dead and the current version we have deployed has been
'broken' for a good many people for over 2 years due to TLS changes
and such.
A tracking ticket was opened up
https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/issue/7864 a while ago, and
the reporter pointed out that
https://netboot.xyz does have a working
version. However, we in infrastructure do not have any time to work on
this in any time in the near future. Instead we would like to
deprecate the service and drop it as something we are listing we do.
Strawman:
* plan to retire/remove service 2020-01-31
* announce now to announce/devel-announce about it going away
* do some blog posts
* send reminder emails on the 24th that it goes away in 1 week
* remove on 31st:
* content in fedora-infra git repo
* fedora-websites content about it
* remove from ansible
* remove from dns
* remove from secondary01 dir and people02
* any docs? wiki pages?
How does that sound?
