URL hosting #50

@shikokuchuo and @jeroen, we agreed today to start implementing #10 using https://multiverse.r-universe.org for QA and https://production.r-universe.org for production. Thanks for taking care of all that DNS stuff.

Good news: I think I solved my proxy issue. For strange reasons that I always forget, I set envvars https_proxy, http_proxy, and all_proxy. (Probably had to do with being able to install packages at work or something.) After I unset these variables, curl -v https://r-multiverse.org worked.

Other news: when I tried available.packages("https://multiverse.r-multiverse.org") and available.packages("https://production.r-multiverse.org"), both on my personal machine and my work machine, I get:

You need to specify the right argument (it's not the first one):

available.packages(repos = "https://multiverse.r-multiverse.org/")

Also just to add, there are additional redirects so this returns the same:

available.packages(repos = "https://r-multiverse.org/")

We can consider whether we want to retain this or not.

Doh! :facepalm: :laughing:

We can consider whether we want to retain this or not.

If we do retain it, we might consider a redirect to https://production.r-multiverse.org.
