summary: The work session focuses on the migration of mailing lists between an old and a new server ran by feminists involved in the Systerserver project. It opens a discussion around volunteering time, skill-sharing and technical tasks within grassroots tech communities. Autonomous feminist servers projects often operate with hardware that has to be assembled as opposed to cloud hosting, and recreational care as opposed to paid work. The work session is co-hosted together with [Mara](https://psaroskalazines.gr/) and is made up of two parts. The first part is a technical hands-on backup/migration process and the second is a discussion around the connections between feminist servers and the travel path of this migration.

We invite you to an online day, hosted by Varia and facilitated by the infrastructure of [Constant](https://www.constantvzw.org/) and [Varia Broadcasts](stream.vvvvvvaria.org/), dedicated to feminist servers.

Autonomous feminist servers projects often operate with hardware that has to be assembled as opposed to cloud hosting, and recreational care as opposed to paid work. Maintaining infrastructures on a donation basis results in a dynamic environment where the need for backups and migrations often arises and for many different reasons: hardware failures, memory and software upgrades, making space for other projects, moving files, moving to new servers and so on.

**Location**: COMING SOON <br>
**Date**: Saturday 13/03/2021 <br>
**Time**: 11:00-16:00 CET
The coming workshop is made up of two parts. The first part is a technical hands-on migration organized by **[Mara](https://psaroskalazines.gr/)**, of one or more mailing lists of _anarchaserver, hersunday_ and _femservers_ communities, all hosted by the systerserver project — a necessary task that will conclude the move to the new server and allow the repurposing of the old server. Participants are invited to join in by actively documenting the process together and intervening with questions and thinking through the technical problems. See below more info on the technical steps.

Στο εργαστήριο αυτό θα μιλήσουμε σχετικά με τη μετεγκατάσταση λιστών ηλεκτρονικής αλληλογραφίας μεταξύ ενός παλιού και ενός νέου διακομιστή που εκτελούνται από φεμινίστριες ενεργές στο project Systerserver. Σκοπός του εργαστηρίου αυτού είναι να ανοίξει μια συζήτηση σχετικά με τον χρόνο εθελοντισμού, την κατανομή δεξιοτήτων και τα τεχνικά καθήκοντα εντός των τεχνολογικών κοινοτήτων της βάσης. Τα έργα αυτόνομων φεμινιστικών διακομιστών λειτουργούν συχνά με υλικό που πρέπει να συναρμολογηθεί σε αντίθεση με τη φιλοξενία cloud και την ψυχαγωγική φροντίδα σε αντίθεση με την αμειβόμενη εργασία. Το εργαστήριο σε συνεργασία με τη [Μάρα](https://psaroskalazines.gr/) αποτελείται από δύο μέρη: το πρώτο μέρος είναι μια τεχνική πρακτική διαδικασία δημιουργίας μετεγκατάστασης λογισμικών για ηλ. λιστες αλληλογραφίας, και το δεύτερο είναι μια γενικότερη συζήτηση φεμινιστικών διακομιστών και τη σχέση τους με τον τόπο και τη διαδρομή των μετεγκαταστάσεων τους.
