looks like since this page have been built, the discussion stopped :-(

I would think that is mostly because the volunteers are nose-down working on their parts of the project or their solutions. Do not lose heart, I think things are happening. I am getting ready to do an article for openSUSE News about this project, which is why I am trying to find out more about what is happening, who is doing what, and what their progress is. -- -Gerry Makaro openSUSE Member openSUSE Global Moderator openSUSE Contributor YaST Contributor aka Fraser_Bell on the Forums, OBS, IRC, and mail at openSUSE.org Fraser-Bell on Github -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org

I was not aware you were running a test.

"Subscribe" had me confused, but I guess it means "sign up".

anybody can create an account, an admin can later give a "role"

The requirement to fill in address, zip and city seems silly, but I just wrote some garbage.

it's initially to non profit organization, there address is mandatory. I wonder if the new european regulations wont make some sort of them necessary, to identify somebody (not sure)

When I tried to login to change my password, I received a 404.

for example my "galette" proposal do not seems to be very popular, nobody cared to subscribe

I did, you should see a user "cboltz" ;-)

I don't see any subscriber with this name. I have Trumpet (per jensen) and MEYER Hans (?) so I added yours, you must have received a confirmation mail, I will ,forward you the passwd separately

Yes, I agree with this wholeheartedly.

for example my "galette" proposal do not seems to be very popular, nobody cared to subscribe

there in even in galette a module to generate random data for experiment, here the admin view:

Sorry, I think I had better get testing that. Been preoccupied with non-openSUSE things this past week. I should have tested earlier, my apologies. Will do so sometime this weekend. -- -Gerry Makaro openSUSE Member openSUSE Global Moderator openSUSE Contributor YaST Contributor aka Fraser_Bell on the Forums, OBS, IRC, and mail at openSUSE.org Fraser-Bell on Github -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org

There is no spam in sight at connect, mostly Stefan Seyfried doing.

About the new platform I will not say, I know nothing about them.

I recommend considering CleanTalk ( https://cleantalk.org ) as a spam solution; we implemented for LinuxFest Northwest this year, after being inundated with hundreds of fake accounts originating in Russia (?!?) over the course of a single week.

Thanks, James. Definitely something to look into once we are setting up the new system, depending on what the Team ultimately chooses. -- -Gerry Makaro openSUSE Member openSUSE Global Moderator openSUSE Contributor YaST Contributor aka Fraser_Bell on the Forums, OBS, IRC, and mail at openSUSE.org Fraser-Bell on Github -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org

Your main concern was the spam, and you have done well.  That is progress, IMHO.

Just as a progress report: I'm now at page 160 of the users directory (newest first, 10 per page) at checking and banning SPAM accounts. But actually the ones back there do not really matter, because they do not turn up on the front page and thus are never seen (non-logged-in cannot browse the users list AFAICT and logged in at least would have to actively search for a user to find a spam account), so I will basically shift down to just watching the front page and treating new spammers accordingly. I have not seen new spammers creating groups yet, this seems to have been only a few some years back that had specialized on the elgg platform AFAICT, and they are deleted already. -- Stefan Seyfried "For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for nature cannot be fooled." -- Richard Feynman -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
