= Orchard Infrastructure =

The infrastructure underpinning the Orchard services is operated by the Unix Services Team team at the University of Oxford IT Services. For the benefit of contributors to Orchard within the Oxford, but also to help the wider Mac admin community, we decided to publish as much information about our infrastructure. However, there are some situations where we cannot publish all details of a certain infrastructure component. This might be related to information security or simply due to the fact that we feel the system is not in a state to be publicly documented.
