snoopdave opened a new pull request, #241: URL: https://github.com/apache/roller/pull/241
Weblog update pings are obsolete: ping spam led almost every public ping service to shut down. This removes the feature from Roller 7. - The Weblog > Pings page, the Global Admin > Ping Targets page, the ping queue task and the `pings.*` settings are gone. - Upgrading to 7.0 drops the `pingtarget`, `autoping` and `pingqueueentry` tables and removes leftover ping settings and the `PingQueueTask` task record. New installs no longer create them. - The user guide, security model and CHANGES are updated. CHANGES tells administrators to remove `PingQueueTask` and `pings.*` from `roller-custom.properties`. The branch first merges `roller-6.1.x`, so master gets #235 and #236 before the code is removed. Status: `mvn clean install` passes, including a new `DatabaseInstallerUpgradeTest` case for the 610 to 700 upgrade. A manual upgrade of a copy of a production database is still in progress. Please don't merge until the dev@ discussion on removing pings concludes. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
