Hi, Sorry to suggest this, but perhaps you do not know what is on-topic for this mailing list? This list caters to "Discussions about the development of the openSUSE distributions", which excludes discussions related to bug reports, temporary timeout issues with random build service projects, and so on. Really, unless the subject of your email is about some major change in Factory or a response to such, please consider sending your mail to the support or general list. This list is getting more and more "spammy" for actual developers to follow.
Thanks for your understand and best wishes,
I think that this list is also appropriate for reaching maintainers of repositories, because they may know what is happening. Asking on a plain mail list might not produce results, as users do not know aside of "me too".
I am sure you do, but you are mistaken. If everyone starts emailing to this list complaining about random repositories (especially each time there is a timeout when accessing said repo), it will no doubt become impossible to follow for Factory developers to keep up. There are several other, better ways to complain about specific repos, for example, by clicking on the "Report bug" icon on the corresponding build.o.o project page. This topic (regarding what is off-topic to this specific list) has been brought up before, most notably when setting up the opensuse-support ML, but I guess we need a monthly reminder or something. -- Atri
