I don't understand why some projects have the need for a separate test project. It's perfectly possible to test apps on the main project. Some projects already do this and let users decide whether or not they want to run test apps in their preferences.
Also, in this case, it would've been nice if I and other stats sites were warned in advance. This not only affects stats but BAM! as well (the message "closing the testserver" does not cover the redirection).
Firstly, test server was originaly my private one and was founded by me temporary until UofW buy production one.
Secondary, in this project "test" is also for work generator where small bug can kill server machine and this is why I prefer to keep it live to not harm production
machine...
Unfortunately, I move all my stuff to other server and don't have a time to setup it again in new location, also I move all my virtual servers to the same place and can't afford risk of harming my other services...
And I have informed here (but yes, not in private message or email - my fault) and on test server about shutting down...
