[opensuse-project] Access to a connect platform to test delete spam

Hello, Heroes team You may know (or not), that opensuse-project mailing list is heavily discussing the shutdown of connect and the replacement by something else. As temporary measure, some of us want to try remove the spam on the <https://connect.opensuse.org/>, while others discuss and try a replacement. We would need some kind of access to the platform. any hint appreciated -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.0 x86_64 at Telcontar)

Well, I don't see spam now. I have banned some users, deleted some obvious spam users, deleted some polls and some groups. Stefan Seyfried has been busy before I started. If there are more, please point me to them ;-) There are, of course, a plethora of useless groups and polls (with no content, one vote, or one member), but as long as they are not spam I don't see the point. I did delete one or two of this while I was looking around till I found the bigger prey. Made one or two comments (for checking if I would get an email, but no). Many of those groups seems attempt by people for finding openSUSE users on this country or other. There seems to be interest in that, but most groups are empty or almost so - or it is just that the Connect platform didn't became popular. Someone commented of spam in calendars, but I found no calendars at all. Unless Stefan cleared them before I looked. :-? I don't know if we can/should generally ban polls on that platform - if it is being removed, I see no point in having them. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.0 x86_64 at Telcontar)
