Java-sig pseudo user and commit messages incoming
 

If you read Java SIG's latest meeting summary you know we decided to use
this mailing list for commit messages addressed to java-sig pseudo-user.

Pseudo-user has been created and mailing list has been set-up to allow
commit messages from monitored packages[1] (thanks to tibbs and mjw)

This means there will be quite a lot of messages incoming but they
should be easy to filter with your mail client. If you want java-sig to
monitor and check your commits you can add java-sig pseudo user to CC
for your package. For old packages follow [2]. For new packages that you
want to have monitored just add java-sig to CC when asking for SCM.
This is not mandatory (at least for now), but still encouraged :-)

One thing to note: email of java-sig is this mailing list
(fedora-java@l.f.o) but emails will be comming as if from comitter's
email address as present in FAS. Currently ML is set-up to allow
messages from @fedoraproject.org mail addresses. It will reject commit
messages from other email addresses. If you use different mail for
java-devel ML and for FAS then let me know off-list and I'll add
exception for your email (I just don't feel like checking manually or
scripting this right now).

I'll be sending similar notice to people on fedora-devel in case they
want to add their packages to monitoring.

Why can't these commit messages be sent to a new mailing list rather than
flooding this one?

I second that, I like this follow his list and some times problem here
arise that are of more general interest, but I would really like to not
have floods of commit messages (I know I can filter them, but at times
people reply to commit messages, things can become quite messy).

Cheers,
Mario

Hava a look at the meeting logs[1]. IIRC nobody wanted to put some work
into this. I'm quite sure, people wouldn't mind if you take care. Just
put it on the meeting agenda [2] and attend the next meeting.

I added emails having scm-commits@lists.fedoraproject.org as destination
as acceptable for this mailinglist. But I do agree that it might be a
good idea to have a separate list for commits and discussion.

Cheers,

Mark

So today I've had to delete about ten such e-mails on this list. Not only
is this a waste of time, but the e-mails appear as bug reports in many cases
and so get confused with real bug reports that I actually care about.

Please move these automated messages to a separate list.

I second that.

I understand your point, but I think Java SIG doesn't really have the
right to change the behaviour of a list in this way, this was discussed
only by two persons if I read the log correctly, but this decision has
impact on every one who uses this list, and, I don't have time to follow
SIG meetings or take care of anything else, it's quite bad, and I really
would like to dedicate more time, but this is the way it is, and now
this list has become just useless.

Making a new mailing list is cheap, or *if you really have to use this
one*, just make a nice weekly summary, with a clear subject of what's
going on, and don't flood us. This is even in the most minimal
netiquette requirement, if not common sense.

Thanks,
Mario
