LSTSRV-L is no longer on hold. Actually the US didn't get my message until the
operation was finished, because DDAGSI1 was down most of the day.
 
The FRMOP22-CEARN (et al) queue is almost  gone. There are less than 700 files
in  the CEARN  spool. However,  the  FRMOP22 people  had to  dump 10000  files
destined for CEARN to tape, which they  plan to restore on monday. This is the
reason why there have been a lot of answers on LSTSRV-L in Europe to questions
that hadn't been asked (or well I think this is the reason, I might be wrong).
Before  I changed  the topology,  all  the European  LSTSRV-L mail  had to  go
through DEARN. When  the files are restored, they will  continue their trip to
DEARN and will  then go back to FRECP11, which  will redistribute to EB0UB011,
FINHUTC and  POLYGRAF. There will  therefore be a few  'via checks' on  the US
peers; these  are normal and  should be  ignored (unless they  cause duplicate
mailings, in which case we'd have a bug).
