It would have been nice to a least send out a warning, probably on a low traffic list like announce, that all 11.1 dependent targets and its packages are going to be killed of. That way, I would have been able to prepare a local mirror.
I thought, that fascist operators from hell would had been an issue of the past. I failed.
You failed since december to move to discontinued as announce since then.
Adrian, I had boat loads of builds to targets like KDE_Distro_Stable_openSUSE_11.1, KDE_Distro_Factory_openSUSE_11.1
that all vanished. Or builds against openSUSE_11.1 of devel:language:python, that are all gone. How should I have had moved these over?
Again, failing builds is one thing, removing everything from projects _and_ repos is something very different in my book.
OBS should have told this its users before first use:
Don't rely on me, I'm killing off everything, that I don't like, or that I think is outdated. Take that for granted, I'm not kidding.
Are you seriously saying that distro versions that went EOL getting moved into the Discontinued namespace and their build targets getting removed from normal repos to save build power and mirror space is new to you? Please get a grip or come up with quite some money to buy more build hosts, bandwidth and some hds for mirrors.
BTW, I wasn't able to locate a message with 11.1 in the subject in the respective MLs, that states this fact. But I found a mail from Dominique Leuenberger back in 2008 "[opensuse-buildservice] openSUSE 10.2 dropped from BS" that criticizes a similar act already as being way too rude, but who cares about users..
