I did. No response. I emailed "admin@opensuse.org", which is the only published contact.

No, but obviously one is not reading the same doc several times a year. Likewise, the novell only forums are distributed by the forum.opensuse.org nntp server. That's something you people are forgetting, that all nntp servers here carry all forums. Like the netiq and suse forums inside forum.opensuse.org.
I'm using that already for some hours, but that doesn't excuse not warning users of the other system, with a method they read. Nor it is excuse for the contact page not appearing in the search results of our search - and that is indeed a problem for this project mail list.

I've taken your feedback to the people responsible. Given that it was changed on October 1, 2010, I don't think it's unreasonable to not post a notification that the *Novell* forums' NNTP interface was going to be offline in the openSUSE forums. But I've passed your feedback along regardless. In the future, you now know that if you experience problems, you should check to make sure you're using the proper server. While the two involved NNTP servers are used to back each other up, the intention is that openSUSE and SUSE users use forums.opensuse.org/forums.suse.com and the Novell/NetIQ users use forums.novell.com. That's why it's documented that way.
Given that the change was made 2 years ago, it seems reasonable to assume that if you're accessing the *Novell* forums, you'll look on the *Novell* pages, not the openSUSE pages. But whatever.

Perhaps. But it has not been documented that users of the other server should migrate. And if we have to migrate, it is not enough to document, it has to be announced as well, in the media we use. Indeed, I asked once if I should migrate, and I was told that all the servers were equal, that there was no need.
I've taken your feedback to the people responsible.
Thanks.
Not documented.
That's why it's documented that way.
It is not documented that users of one forum should not use the other server. Only that one server is named now. If the intention is that each server is the backup of the other, this has to be documented. If there is an scheduled maintenance job, it has to be announced to both the main server and backup server, using a medium that the users affected (of all news feeds) will read. And this was not done, it was announced only via web to one of the forums, and perhaps to one of the feeds.
No, you don't understand. This thread was not intended to ask about the forum problem, it was intended as to handle why the opensuse.org web page search box is incapable of finding the contact web page for the project! Why do we have so a useless search box! Can something be done about that? And as a side issue, I asked if somebody could perhaps tell me where to inform about my issue, as I could not find that page. And somebody did. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.

That is perhaps excessive :-)
The announcement group should be the right place, I think, to tell existing nntp users to make sure they are using the correct server. New users should read the faq and get the correct one first time. Ah, sorry, you mean the outage? The outage should have been announced in that group once, that should have been enough as well. In the announcement group of all the news feeds carried by a server.
Actually, I had. But perhaps you don't remember that once I asked if I should migrate, and the answer, AFAIR, was no, no need. Remember that switching nntp servers is a pain, because often it means that posts get reloaded, and the client forgets which posts were read, which replied to, etc. It is a royal pain. Using leafnode as intermediate it has been less of a pain, but I have perhaps hundreds of duplicate mails, all have not been detected.
It should not happen :-) It is enough to tell once to migrate. And perhaps add in the faq "not to use the other server". The FAQ was changed, but when a change is done people that read it before remember what it said; thus we have to be told to forget the old info and switch servers; that's the missing info in the faq. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E.

I'm confused....You seem to think it needs to be documented, but now you don't. :)
What would you consider to be "the right place"? As I pointed out, we've announced things before where we thought was "the right place" but were taken to task for putting it in the "last place" someone would have thought to look for that information. You see, it seems we're hosed whatever we do - if we announce it in the wrong place, then people say "you put it in a place where I wouldn't look". If we don't, then we get taken to task for not posting it (whether we thought it was relevant or not, as is the case with the Novell forums' NNTP outage). It seems there's no way for us to "win" with this. Wherever we put it, someone's going to say we put it in the wrong place, because it's not where they would look. Indeed, we had put the proper NNTP server info in the FAQ and you've told us that that's the wrong place for it for existing NNTP users. So again, it's feeling like we can't "win" for trying. So I thought I'd ask you - since you're interested in this - where you felt it should go - what the specific "appropriate" place would be. Of course, someone else is very likely to come along and tell us that because we put it someplace *they* wouldn't have thought to go to, we got it wrong even though you will have told us the "proper" place. :)
Sure, it wasn't necessary, but that doesn't mean that when the Novell forums' interface is taken down that users of the non-Novell groups are going to see the announcements. I myself use both servers, with separate profiles in Pan, for the various groups. But given that you had noted that the address changed, I would have assumed/expected that you would have checked the openSUSE groups on the openSUSE server upon encountering a problem with the openSUSE groups on the Novell server.
It can be, but a good newsreader and/or server should be able to handle duplicates appropriately, by not only using the high message indicator but also by determining if a message is a duplicate by using the Message ID (which is going to be the same regardless of what server it comes through).
Outages happen. That's the nature of IT. But you're avoiding my question of where *specifically* such an announcement should be put so as to reach everyone who needs to see it. We updated the address in the FAQ, but that apparently wasn't sufficient. So now if we post somewhere that those using NNTP should use forums.opensuse.org, how do we avoid the problem of another NNTP user (perhaps who has been away for 6 months) coming back in another 3 months and encountering a problem because they didn't see the notice that they should update their configuration to point to forums.opensuse.org? Or do we just wait for that to happen and then have this exact same discussion with them, with the addendum that we posted a message in a newsgroup that you specified (since he ran into this issue and we asked for your input), only to have that person tell us that we put it in "the last place they would look"?
But if we put that in the FAQ, you've already said that you didn't go back and read the FAQ after it changed. So I'm asking you *specifically* where you think we should tell people about this so they won't miss it, regardless of when the last time they read the FAQ was or the last time they accessed the forums via NNTP was. I'd like your help in identifying "the appropriate place" so we can avoid having this discussion with someone else in a few months, because clearly when we've tried to notify users in the past, we've not done as good of a job as those users would have done themselves....So I figure it makes sense to ask one of these users who thinks they know the best way to handle this. :) Jim -- Jim Henderson Please keep on-topic replies on the list so everyone benefits -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org

Well, once upon a time, with default MediaWiki search at hand we decided to keep debugging and troubleshooting info in separate namespaces, so that search can be limited to either presentation or troubleshooting wiki space. Idea was that people that just skim over the wiki don't get swamped with articles about problems, like that was the case in the old wiki. Shortly before switch was almost impossible to get some introduction article high in the search results. Now after new search was introduced is possible some tweaking, but search extension is still pretty primitive. There is interest to do something about it, but as it is usual, developers are busy and it will take some time to do something about it.

That page doesn't load, either. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.

Hi Sure, now with the splitting up, forums.novell.com, forums.suse.com and forums.opensuse.org it's more specific, hence you need to change.

Hi I would guess that it was since it's a Novell forum issue and not the openSUSE forum....

I did. No response. I emailed "admin@opensuse.org", which is the only published contact. It is an issue for both forums, because this server was the one that was documented for openSUSE.org when I started using it. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
