[ml-admin] Subscriber only posting is back on

by Henne Vogelsang

Hey, after experimenting a lot with non-subscriber posting and our spam filter we have come to the conclusion that we can't win that fight :-/ The wide range of HAM and SPAM that make it to our hundreds of lists make it virtually impossible to set up a spam filter with a good miss/false positive ratio. So we have turned on subscriber only posting for all lists again. Non subscriber posts are moderated. That moderation can take potentially a very long time, so better subscribe to the list you're posting to. If you receive mails by some other means (nntp or whatever) subscribe to the nomail version of the list[1] Have a lot of fun...

End of lifetime patches: openSUSE-release

by Lars Vogdt

Hi Maintenance I'm currently checking how the end of lifetime for an openSUSE release is handled - and currently I just see "release-notes-openSUSE" as the only package which is released for this. But IMHO the following packages should see a update at the end of a product like openSUSE 13.1: 1) release-notes-opensuse 2) openSUSE-release 3) monitoring-plugins-zypper Reasons: for 1: the release notes should contain a chapter / note at the very beginning about the end of lifetime for a product. This helps customers to quickly note that they are trying to get outdated information for an outdated product. => done. for 2: openSUSE-release "owns" the file /etc/products.d/openSUSE.prod - here you can add a line like this: <endoflife>2015-01-01</endoflife> This line will trigger YaST to add a popup window telling the user that his product is no longer supported (tested with openSUSE 13.1) once he starts the update manager. for 3: the monitoring-plugins-zypper package - once installed on a client - currently also checks for outdated OS versions by parsing /etc/SuSE-release (resp. the successor). If we implement the "endoflife" Tag in the product file, this package can rely on this tag and does not need updates any longer for this. At the moment, this package allows administrators to check via remote monitoring if a system needs update or is out of lifetime. What do you think? Especially if the "openSUSE-release" package see's a patch like the suggested one in the future, this can also be used by other tools. Should I open a bug report for this? with kind regards, Lars -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org

Re: [opensuse-project] Meeting minutes IRC Meeting 23rd March -> Next meeting 31rd March 13h UTC / 15 CEST

by Hans de Raad

As international timezones can sometimes be daunting, I've made an error in the time conversion for the next meeting: http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?day=31&month=3&year=20… The base time is always UTC, so in this case 13h UTC means 15h CEST. Le sigh.... See you then!

What's with the censorship on the forum?

by Yang Yu

Is the forum forums.opensuse.org managed by openSUSE project? A good amount of IP ranges are banned from viewing the forum (contact your ISP for spam abuses). ISPs can't care less if someone is spamming your forum for obvious reasons. I registered an account to ask why my IP range was banned and found out later my account got banned for spam. Way to exercise dictatorship on the Internet. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org
