What I did last week: + GNOME 2.32.1: managed the release upstream with the latest member of the release team (it was some kind of training), and reviewed the submissions Dominique did for openSUSE (he's amazing, as usual). Most of it should be in the milestone that'll get released this week. + worked with Alexander on preparing a bug day announcement, for zombie bugs. Where "worked" means Alexander did the work. + good chat with Klaas about various things. + tried to catch up with mails, still not done :/ + went to an event in Toulouse on Saturday to talk about release management. The event was much more successful than what I expected, so I'm glad I took time for it. Also had a nice chat with the Debian Project Leader there. What I will do this week: + my main goal is to make big progress for the organization of a cross-distro meeting about app store/market place/software center. + prepare the bug day that will be next Saturday Vincent -- Les gens heureux ne sont pas pressés. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-boosters+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-boosters+help(a)opensuse.org

openSUSE Mailinglists in Connect
by Klaas Freitag 22 Nov '10

22 Nov '10

Hi, Ludwig just mentioned that the mailinglist management (subscribe and unsubscribe) is not very user friendly. First, one has to find out how to do it (and the link to help is also not very exposed) and than one has to send wired mail to the list management software. Ok for geeks, a hurdle for ordinary people. Why not have a list management page in Connect? Connect knows which email to use, could query a list of all available mailing lists and the subscription state from the list software and offer a nice page where one could click on and off the subscription state of mailing lists. Connect has to do the subscription change in background. Evaluation is not needed any more since the user is validated in connect. What do you think? Doable?
