Ping @Hjfocs

The Cloud Services team would like to have Debian Jessie systems replaced with Debian Buster (or Stretch if necessary) before 2019-12-31. Please do respond of this task with comments if you know you will not be able to meet that target date or have additional questions about what to do or how to do it. Ideally you will create new instances in your Cloud VPS project, test them, and then migrate any final state data to the new instances before deleting the old Jessie instances. If you need more quota space in your project to create new instances in parallel with your existing instances please create a quota request task describing the increase you need and referencing this deprecation task.

@Denny You marked this project as "in use" in the 2019 project purge. Are you able to contact @Hjfocs to address this task?

Hi @bd808.

I used to work on this project with @Hjfocs and was able to contact him.

AFAIK the tool is "in use" and acts as an api for the primary sources tool.

@Hjfocs won't be able to adress this task until the 9th of January. If it is extremely urgent I could try to fix it.

Working on it starting next week would be great! I will mark this project as one needing a bit more time.
