Matt,
This seems to be a common misunderstanding. Our phpWebSite and SourceForge 
do not share authentication.

The user/admin logins for our phpWebSite are done with php session ids and 
cookies. They are md5 hashed and stored in our MySQL database. They only 
authenticate logins for our phpWebSite. I disabled the user login from our 
home page.
http://leaf.sourceforge.net/

User authentication for SourceForge is handled site wide by an LDAP server. 
It authenticates logins for cvs, ssh shell, compile farm, and web site 
access. The web login for SourceForge is here:
https://sourceforge.net/account/login.php

Looks great to me too.

When you say you disabled user logins, do you mean that you 
took the "Login via SSL" link off the home page?   Just wondering
becuase I was hunting around for that a bit myself.

Thanks,
Matthew

Matt & Lynn,
Take a look at the link above now, and let me know if this is what you had 
in mind.

Matt,
Thanks for the idea. :-)

It sounds clean, simple, and informative to me w/o any click throughs.

Not enough information.  The summary is too brief.
I'd have to click too many things and be at the mercy
of my internet dload speed/sf website speed/short term
memory loss :-o

That ones sort of messy.  There's a lot going on for
the font and style.  Hard to grasp the simple point
of the page.  (Sort of a general bloat gripe about SF).

Now that I like.  I was hoping for something really simple.
It could even be straight text, if that's easy to roll out.
Though, I still think cutting and pasting a minimal html 
version would be straightforward enough.

What might be intersting is to pop up a new half sized window
when the user clicked the NoyesNews link.  That window would
be absolutely minimal with only the news in text or html format.
Then you could sort of put that small window off to the side
of your desktop and click on a link while watching it appear 
in your main browser window.

Normally I dislike the idea of popping open a new window, but
in this instance it seems useful.

 
> Will everyone still want me to post updates to this list too?

I think that's the idea.  Then it's well searchable. 

Does that make any sense?
Matt

Matt,
Great idea. :-)
Now the question is how would you like to see it implemented?

Option 1:
I already log all SourceForge support requests that I make for us. I can 
create a couple of trackers in our SF Task List in the Administration 
Subproject.

Example ref. Task ID: 25193, 25199, 25194, 45595, 45594. Note: you can only 
view this page if you're logged into SF.
https://sourceforge.net/pm/task.php?group_id=13751&group_project_id=5257


Option 2:
Create a page in our DocManager using the SourceForge Site Status page as a 
template. Example:
http://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=2352&group_id=1

Option 3:
Create a page in our phpWebSite for this purpose. Example:
http://leaf.sourceforge.net/content.php?menu=1000&page_id=4

Will everyone still want me to post updates to this list too?

Very nice work.

Again, good job and thanks in advance :)

I realized that what I really need from you, in addition
to all the excellent work that you've done maintaining the
SF site, is to keep some sort of really simple web based
log of these informational emails.

It'd be so awesome to be able to scroll down through
a short listing, there's probably is one already :-o
If not, something like:



Date: 16 JAN 2002
URL:  www.mail-archive.com/leaf-devel%40lists.sourceforge.net/msg03976.html
Summary: Files section updated and files released.  Personal developer CVS
 trees now up.  A major update, so let me know if anything broke.



Something along those lines.  Maybe I'm lazy or crazy, but doesn't 
that seem mildly appealing?  I'm having a problem keeping the big 
picture straight when some of this gets drowned out.
Thanks,
Matt
