Dear Chris, All,
yes, advising people to resign from cf-metadata to avoid messages from github is a bit over the top. As an interim, I believe that the cf-metadata administrator could bar github from sending messages to this list (mailman offers this option on the admin page) until we have worked out how it should work. regards, Martin ________________________________ From: CF-metadata <[email protected]> on behalf of Chris Barker <[email protected]> Sent: 08 November 2018 23:04 To: CF Conventions mailing list; [email protected] Subject: Re: [CF-metadata] Turning off gitHub!!!! By the way, if we DO use a mailing list for a gitHub/TRAC bridge, could we please gve it a name other than: cf-metadata It's really confusing to figure out which one I should mail to. How about cf-metadata-github-bridge or something? -CHB On Thu, Nov 8, 2018 at 2:51 PM, Chris Barker <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Apparently the gitHub mirroring is really driving folks crazy -- we really need to turn it off until it's done properly. Action #1: Who knows the password of the cf-metadata-list gitHub user??? https://github.com/cf-metadata-list That person can go log into gitHub as that user, and stop watching the Issue at hand -- I'm not anyone else can easily do that. Action #2 Maybe turn off the list that's hooked up to gitHub? That would stopp all this 'till we figure it out. Action #3 post here, VERY CLEARLY, how folks can opt out of the gitHub mirroring list. NOTE to CASUAL USERS: I *think* the reason you all are having trouble opting out is that there are TWP cf-metadata lists: One is the usual one, hosted by ucar: http://mailman.cgd.ucar.edu/mailman/listinfo/cf-metadata The other is hosted by llnl, and handles the gitHub (and TRAC??) email. I *think* everyone that subscribed to the regular list gets aauto-subscribed to the other list. here's a bit of info on that: The discussions carried out on the Trac site (and now gitHub) are sent to subscribers of this list via messages from the majordomo list, [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>. You will automatically be subscribed to that list. To unsubscribe, without unsubscribing from this list, send a message to "[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>" with "unsubscribe cf-metadata" in the body of your message. -CHB -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> _______________________________________________ CF-metadata mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.cgd.ucar.edu/mailman/listinfo/cf-metadata
