Ignore this email if you are not a maintainer. After the GNOME 3.0.1 release I will remove shell access to window.gnome.org for people in the 'ftpadmin' group (maintainers).
You will still have access to the master.gnome.org VM. Impact: * you cannot use the old install-module script anymore * I will disable any cron jobs running on window.gnome.org The GNOME 3.0.1 release requires the tarballs to be created latest at April 25th at 23:59 UTC. The shell access will only be removed after GNOME 3.0.1 is released (around April 27). Users who have one of the accounts/gnomeweb/webusers groups will still be able to access window.gnome.org. Note that the /ftp mount will be made readonly on window.gnome.org at the same time the ftpadmin access is revoked. Regarding ftpadmin: If you notice any bugs in the ftpadmin script, please file them at: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=sysadmin Bugs fixed: - Will still try and add a version in Bugzilla even if there is no bug-database in the DOAP file - Correctly verify tarballs generated with the Solaris tar program - Remove original tarball (the one in your homedirectory) - Clarify in the 'extra-data' error message that the program can likely be fixed by adding 'tar-ustar' in AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE - Flush data when creating NEWS/ChangeLog files New features: - Extra headers (easier parsing) in the ftp-release-list emails Oustanding issues: - Doesn't generate RSS feed anymore Suggestions for easy to use Python package welcome (needs to be available in RHEL6 or EPEL6) - Need to figure out a timeline to move to .xz format -- Regards, Olav -- devel-announce-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/devel-announce-list
