Re: Fwd: Incubator PMC/Board report for Oct 2012 ([ppmc])
Hi Noah... This reminder is for collecting reports which is early enough as the reports are discussed at board meeting 3rd Wednesday from each month. Before reports were collected just one week before the board meeting and some of them were too late to submit there reports and hence the IPMC came up with the idea to collect it max. by the 1st Wednesday of the month. And I believe the reminders are even send more early than that I suppose this one is just a second/another reminder But thanks for being so keen to get things done on the right time :) On Thu, Oct 4, 2012 at 1:19 AM, Noah Slater nsla...@tumbolia.org wrote: I had seen the earlier reminder, but had not made a calendar event for it.

Would be nice to have the final call reminder come in 72 hours before the deadline, as is customary in Apache.

Re: Fwd: Incubator PMC/Board report for Oct 2012 ([ppmc])
Can we not run the cronjob ever day and have it wake up, do some date math, and then go back to sleep unless the moment is right. The moment being right defined as 72 hours before the deadline.

Would be nice to have the final call reminder come in 72 hours before the deadline, as is customary in Apache. IIRC the main problem in making this happen is that the current cronjob is unable to send reminders already for the following month. Thus the reminders to podlings end up being sent only at the beginning of the month, sometimes just moments before the deadline. So far I've tried to remedy this by sending earlier reminders to general@, but of course not everyone is following that list. It would be great if someone could update our tooling to better handle the reminders. Perhaps the incubator.apache.org site build could even automatically generate per-project ical files for this?

The moment being right defined as 72 hours before the deadline. We can, as soon as we have a patch. :-) Hopefully someone who knows the script better (where it's located, run, etc.) will fill in details on how one would go about writing such a patch.
