PS: Apache OpenOffice committers who have been using @openoffice.org e-mail addresses should move those to alias entries and set up new forwarding addresses if they have not done so already. Thanks Shane, - Dennis, going to brew some coffee now -----Original Message----- From: Shane Curcuru [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Saturday, February 11, 2012 06:30 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Committers and Alias.txt This has recently changed to be part of the shiny new power tool with the strength to move mountains, the ID tool: https://id.apache.org/ I presume the documentation for this, and the new committer invite, etc., has not caught up to the amazing speed and functionality of this new and innovative way to track committer information at the Foundation. Please - login, check it out, and be amazed! - Shane, whose sense of humor is clearly over-blown before coffee P.S. MailAlias.txt is an important way that committers can officially (since it's in SVN, it can only be changed by committers) let other committers know what their normal email addresses are - very helpful for mail moderation, etc. P.P.S. MailAlias.txt and a number of other bits of committer-specific information is now all accessed through LDAP and such on the id.a.o site, where you can change your password, mail aliases, PGP key id, and more. Somewhere is documentation that shows how you can both do this stuff through that website by yourself, but you can also get most of the data from underlying files or services programmatically. P.P.P.S. Thanks infra team!
