Hello everyone, You may have noticed a drop in your Launchpad karma yesterday.
We fixed a bug that was a remnant of the karma caching problem we had in October last year. Unfortunately, when we originally worked on the problem in January, we failed to clear one of Launchpad's caches. This meant that some Launchpad users were showing up twice in contributor lists. When we cleared the cache, we discovered that the problem had also resulted in a small inflation to everyone's karma. Clearing the cache corrected the karma levels and alerted us to the inflation. I'm sorry that we didn't let you know beforehand that your karma was about to drop. The karma level you have now is accurate and a reflection of the work you've done in Launchpad. I'm pleased to say we now have extra checks to make sure it stays that way. I'm sorry we didn't get this fixed all in one go back in January. If you have any comments, please join us in the Launchpad Users Meeting at 17:00 UTC on 7th March in #launchpad. Thanks. -- Matthew Revell - talk to me about Launchpad mrevell in #launchpad, irc.freenode.net -- launchpad-users mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/launchpad-users
