Re: Re: CVS karma

Which in itself is not a big deal. And I reject more than I approve actually. For a while I tried to verify each one with the documentation project leads, but half the time they wouldn't respond. I am not sure how other people would do a better job vetting these folks. If they don't contribute anything they will be blown away on the next account cleanup sweep. -Rasmus Nuno Lopes wrote:

Are you sure? I know that there are some guys that use their account like a free e-mail account redirection. This is because you 'offer' accounts to everybody that wants to join the doc team. Your idea to out-source karma would be good to handle this problems... (I remember to read a mail in the mirrors ML about this...) Nuno ----- Original Message -----

That's a lot less critical. I ran a sweep a couple of years ago that deleted a couple of hundred old unused accounts. At some point I will run another one, but having unused accounts sitting around really doesn't affect us in any way. -Rasmus Nuno Lopes wrote:

And deletion of current cvs accounts? I've run some stats 6 months ago, and about 50% of phpdoc cvs accounts were never used... Nuno ----- Original Message -----

I'd love to outsource that part, but we'd need to modify the tools a bit. Anyway, there was a backlog of 39 cvs account requests. I went through them all and approved about a third of them. -Rasmus Alan Knowles wrote:

I'm not sure if it's group@php.net or systems@php.net is the best place for this, but internals may help a bit.. unless they want to outsource the karma mgmt of pear stuff to one of the pear group ;) Regards Alan Jesper Veggerby Hansen wrote:

Hi guys, Just wondering if anybody has been able to get a new acccount to CVS the last couple of months? Been trying - with what I was told was the official way - through some page hidden deep in the 42nd link from http://php.net/, but hasn't been able to get the right karma, yet. Anybody been successfull or know of which other buttons to press? I think I did take the red pill. Regards Jesper
