A long overdue refresh

Hello again, DW!

In the event nobody remembers me, a few years ago I jumped on the DWagon and started to build my own server. It was running just swimmingly during that time... until I went and tried to clean up unneeded packages. Now the system is buggered (though I do have backups!)

When I reached for my install disc, I realized that it was Ubuntu 9.04x32. I remember being told back then that DW wasn't quite ready for 9.1 or x64. I'm guessing that this has changed by now.

So what is the current best/supported version of Ubuntu server to use as the underlying OS? And is it x64 ready?

Glad to see you guys are still kicking!

I mean with the Dreamwidth codebase. I recall a few of the 32-bit support stuff was "Enabling this commits you to using this forever ( unless you take the time to fix things )"
