Cassandra Targett reassigned SOLR-12018:
----------------------------------------
Assignee: Cassandra Targett
> Ref Guide: Comment system is offline
> ------------------------------------
>
> Key: SOLR-12018
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-12018
> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: Bug
> Security Level: Public(Default Security Level. Issues are Public)
> Components: documentation
> Reporter: Cassandra Targett
> Assignee: Cassandra Targett
> Priority: Major
>
> The Ref Guide uses comments.apache.org to allow user comments. Sometime in
> December/early January, it was taken offline.
> I filed INFRA-15947 to ask after it's long-term status, and recently got an
> answer that it an ETA is mid-March for a permanent INFRA-hosted system.
> However, it's of course possible changes in priorities or other factors will
> delay that timeline.
> Every Ref Guide page currently invites users to leave comments, but since the
> whole Comments area is pulled in via JavaScript from a non-existent server,
> there's no space to do so (see attached screenshot). While we wait for the
> permanent server to be online, we have a couple of options:
> # Leave it the way it is and hopefully by mid-March it will be back
> # Change the text to tell users it's not working temporarily on all published
> versions
> # Remove it from all the published versions and put it back when it's back
> I'm not a great fan of #2 or #3, because it'd be a bit of work for me to
> backport changes to 4 branches and republish every guide just to fix it again
> in a month or so. I'm fine with option #1 since I've known about it for about
> a month at least and as far as I can tell no one else has noticed. But if
> people feel strongly about it now that they know about it, we can figure
> something out.
> If for some reason it takes longer than mid-March to get it back, or INFRA
> chooses to stop supporting it entirely, this issue can morph into what we
> should do for an alternative permanent solution.
