Hello all, as some of you ay have noticed there was an issue with the served version of the FXTF draft repository at http://dev.w3.org/fxtf. Apparently W3C migrated a number of services to a new server and this one got left behind (as did dev.w3.org/csswg). To correct this, I created a new server at http://fxtf.org which hosts a mirror of the drafts repository at: https://hg.fxtf.org/drafts and a served version of the repository at http://drafts.fxtf.org/ The served version and the mirror are updated every five minutes (I'm going to shorten that time lag in a few weeks) and the served version of the repository will also auto-generate any Bikeshed source files that don't have a corresponding output file in the repository. In other words, if there's a file "Overview.src.html" or "Overview.bs" but NOT a file "Overview.html", then "Overview.html" will be auto-generated on the server. This auto-generation keeps all spec cross references up to date in the served versions. http://dev.w3.org/fxtf/ is now a proxy for http://drafts.fxtf.org/. I asked Mike Smith to also change http://dev.w3.org/FXTF/ to the same proxy and I expect that will happen shortly. If you notice any issues with the new server, please let me know. In a few weeks I also plan to make the mirror at https://hg.fxtf.org writable (it will then auto-push changes back to dvcs.w3.org/FXTX) as well as adding a writable GitHub mirror of the draft repository which will allow you to accept GitHub Pull Requests.
