L29Ahfacilitating facilitators failed to facilitate sane forum policies :(12:48
*** parchd has quit IRC13:00
*** parchd has joined #maemo13:30
DocScrutinizer05we have pretty sane forum policies13:32
L29Ahbanning random bands of ip addresses from reading forums and wiki is not sane13:33
*** Madxxer has joined #maemo13:38
*** Madxxer has quit IRC13:38
DocScrutinizer05how's that a *policy*?13:39
DocScrutinizer05that's a implementation detail13:39
DocScrutinizer05and your pun on "facilitators" is completely off13:40
DocScrutinizer05council isn't really in a position to micromanage implementation details13:41
DocScrutinizer05You'd know if you bothered to contribute and help instead of just making demotivating jokes13:42
DocScrutinizer05tmo is using blacklists, and the tmo maintainers/admins have no real saying in which IPs get blocked by those13:44
DocScrutinizer05so best they can do is send customers here to let maintainer know there's an exception needed, which usually gets implemented instantly13:45
DocScrutinizer05if we need blacklist guarding for mere *reading* of forum, or this could get set up in a way so only login is guarded is a completely different topic to discuss13:46
DocScrutinizer05still nothing council is supposed to have any notion or expertise about, best thing council can do is suggest here13:46
DocScrutinizer05hint: maintainer of tmo is chem|st13:47
DocScrutinizer05bottom line: if you had forwarded Railroadmaster to chem|st instead of ranting about "facilitators failed to facilitate", that would have made this a more helpful and friendly place for everybody13:50
DocScrutinizer05sorry when I sound grumpy and pissed - maybe that's because I actually am. This sort of rant doesn't help anybody and I seen it too often already13:52
DocScrutinizer05(this sort: "facilitators failed to facilitate")13:52
DocScrutinizer05if you really want to criticize council for anything, then that would be the lack of presence in here, since their job would be to answer what I suggested you could have answered instead of that rant13:57
DocScrutinizer05they also could point at a lack of precision in instructions given to tmo visitors that get blocked, it should mention whom to ping in here since obviously a lot of users in here have no idea how to handle such a case (ping the maintainer, explain the situation to visitor, ask for patientce and express sorry for the inconvenience)14:01
DocScrutinizer05that's what council is supposed to do, not mess with tmo blacklist modules14:03
DocScrutinizer05that's "facilitating"14:03
DocScrutinizer05council not even has admin accounts on tmo VM14:10
DocScrutinizer05and that's entirely on purpose, they shall not have those14:10
DocScrutinizer05maybe helpful (just apply common sense to adapt those rules to the 'new' situation, like "hire maemo.org staff" becomes "appoint/fire competent expert volunteers for maintaining maemo infra") http://wiki.maemo.org/Community_Council#Council_work14:19
DocScrutinizer05"Being able to represent the community to Nokia" becomes "moderate between techstaff and larger community"14:21
DocScrutinizer05even better: http://wiki.maemo.org/Community_Council/FAQ#What_is_the_difference_between_a_council_member_and_a_committed_community_member.3F14:30
sixwheeledbeastNeed to make it clear on the reject page that techstaff are not here 24/7 they may have to wait about for a response14:31
sixwheeledbeastStill not ideal rejecting Tor in the first place, I would normally not bother with a site like this and move on.14:31
sixwheeledbeastI know, it's not "Tor" but most of the end nodes are blocked.14:32
