Package: lists.debian.org Severity: wishlist Control: block 932558 by -1 X-debbugs-cc: d...@packages.debian.org
Dear listmasters, We would like to request the creation of the list debian-tag2upload. Per TAG2UPLOAD-DESIGN.txt[1], the tag2upload service will send messages before and after processing each tag it receives from salsa. These will be addressed to the person who signed the tag, but we also want to CC them to a public mailing list. This is for both auditing and debugging purposes. We also need an e-mail address for tag2upload's OpenPGP key. Various Debian daemons send mail to the address associated with the OpenPGP key that signed a .dsc or .changes file. These tools will generally need updating to read the Git-Tag-Tagger field out of the .dsc or .changes, to find the e-mail address of the human who signed the tag. In the meantime, we want to ensure that mail from the daemons is not lost. Using debian-tag2upload@lists.d.o as the OpenPGP identity ensures these messages are captured. We also need a From: address for the mail we will send out, and a contact address to include in webpage footers, etc.. Currently our code refers to a "noreply" address. Possibly we will want to change this to the list address, to capture miscellaneous queries. Or we might use the list address in the Reply-To header. In short, the proposed new mailing list will have three purposes: 1. distribute, and archive, logs of the tag2upload service's uploading activities -- a counterpart to debian-devel-changes; 2. collect automated messages from other Debian daemons that don't yet know how to read the Git-Tag-Tagger field; and 3. collect miscellaneous queries and problem reports from tag2upload users. Short description: Notices from the tag2upload Oracle. (High volume mailing list). Long description: Audit & debugging logs from the tag2upload service Oracle daemon. Discussion and questions about tag2upload are allowed, but for concrete user issues, prefer bug reports against the 'git-debpush' package.
