[00:10:47] wikitech cert is out of date? [13:30:33] curious, what was the issue with the git migration emails, just obfuscation? or are some dead addresses or something? [13:35:14] I think it was mainly finding addresses for people [13:36:46] ah. well, i wasn't sure i understood the exact problem so I didn't wwant to waste peoples time on the list, but I was going to suggest maybe just a `some_broken_address@migration.wikipedia.org` for anything you cant find, then just alias it to the real known one later [13:37:07] I think there's only 2 or 3 missing now [13:37:09] mind you, that would mean perm forwarding of the email address [13:37:16] ah, well thats not bad :) [15:16:25] yeah Amgine, known issue and a new one is going to be purchased I think (we had a prolonged discussion about it but I'm not clear on the outcome) [15:55:57] Most long discussions seem to have that result. Either that, or I just stop listening and fail to hear it as it goes by. [15:56:45] What are we buying now? [15:57:21] wikitech cert, maybe or not. [15:57:25] cert for wikitech [15:58:28] what I know for certain is that we are not putting our wildcard cert on it (since it's on a server we don't control) [16:01:39] Yup [16:01:46] It really does seem like a jfdi [16:04:21] apergos, rt #790 [16:04:23] it's on hold [16:04:53] which one is that? (too lazy to look it up) [16:05:01] wikitech cert [16:05:18] may be moving to labs, so no buying cert pending resolution [16:10:23] *Reedy mumbles about it being off cluster for a reason [16:49:43] So that if the cluster dies the wiki with the documentation doesn't? [16:52:37] Yeah [17:02:49] so the idea would be to have an off site copy but the live copy is local [17:03:04] live = the copy that people edit [17:03:50] because honestly are people going to be adding to the documentation while they are fixing the site? I doubt it. at least... I have not yet seen anyone do that. people add after it's back up [20:57:44] ok? [20:58:13] hi splatree, go ahead [20:59:26] i have been told it is not possible to create a username with a non-capitalized first letter. [20:59:56] stop me if that's wrong. [21:00:44] sumanah: [21:02:02] splatree: Hi. I do not actually know that for certain, so I am staying silent to let more knowledgable people say something, if they know. [21:02:22] Perhaps you should just go on and describe the problem. [21:02:29] Or question. [21:03:17] well, that would be the first one; how-to if-possible. [21:04:16] splatree: I have never seen a WMF wiki user whose name started with a lowercase letter. [21:04:21] if-not: is it possible to lowercase the lead letter after creation, as suggested here?: [21:05:03] well, that's somthing of an answer. [21:05:15] here: [21:05:32] http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Meta:Changing_username#Notes [21:08:09] splatree: so I am inferring that it is important to you that your WMF wiki username start with a lowercase letter. Am I correct? [21:10:57] what're you my shrink? ;) [21:11:13] prefered, yes. [21:11:16] splatree: I'm trying to figure out .... ok. [21:11:32] but i'm also stubborn, so "important" could be debated [21:11:44] splatree: I'm now going to look at mediawiki.org to see if it is a known constraint of the MediaWiki software that usernames must not begin with a lowercase letter. [21:12:07] i will wait here. [21:12:21] splatree: you, too, could come to mediawiki.org. [21:13:12] i thought i rememberd it was a seperate one. [21:13:27] restrictred to ...something or other..... [22:21:52] hi hexmode [22:22:02] https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=India_Hackathon_2011/Schedule_notes#Notes we got a lot done the last few days in Mumbai [22:22:07] hey [22:22:16] how are you? [22:22:26] continuing ... [22:22:33] staying level ;) [22:23:27] sumanah: you're back home? [22:24:10] no, still in Mumbai, hexmode [22:24:31] ah, thought you said you wouldn't be back yet [22:25:12] yes. [22:41:22] hexmode: I probably will be unavailable for Monday and part of Tuesday.
