+## Conventions Used
 
+- Host names
+    - `X.gnu.org` and `X.nongnu.org` point to the same IP.
+    - `X.savannah.gnu.org` and `X.sv.gnu.org` point to the same IP.
+    - `dl` => `dl.sv.gnu.org` => `download.savannah.gnu.org`
+    - `vcs` => `vcs.sv.gnu.org` => `vcs.savannah.gnu.org`
+    - `frontend` => `frontend.sv.gnu.org` (sometimes abbreviated as `fe`,
+      but note there is no DNS entry for `fe.sv.gnu.org`)
+- File names
+    - Filenames with server name are written as `dl:/etc/apache2/xxx.conf` -
+      meaning the file `/etc/apache2/xxx.conf` on the `dl` server (which is
+      `dl.sv.gnu.org`).
+    - Filenames without server name - the server is assumed to be deduced from
+      the context.
+
 ## Frontend
 
 The `frontend.sv.gnu.org` VM runs the Savannah website (the PHP code).
