So far, I've added links to other programs regardless who was requesting it. How could I check if an application complies with our requirements? Should I ask what license the program is under or should I check it out myself? -- Lorenzo Cappelletti - Webmaster at http://www.gnupg.org/ Fingerprint: 8CDD 3408 53B2 6122 99DA EE37 1523 68FC D906 4C08 From wk at gnupg.org Mon Aug 23 09:30:39 2004 From: wk at gnupg.org (Werner Koch) Date: Mon Aug 23 09:33:39 2004 Subject: Related software licenses In-Reply-To: <20040821115215.GA2165@quark.standalone.it> (Lorenzo Cappelletti's message of "Sat, 21 Aug 2004 13:52:15 +0200") References: <20040821115215.GA2165@quark.standalone.it> Message-ID: <87y8k62twg.fsf@wheatstone.g10code.de> On Sat, 21 Aug 2004 13:52:15 +0200, Lorenzo Cappelletti said: > About Werner's recent message on jGPG license, I'd like to ask him what > we should do in the future as to avoid adding links to non-compliant > software.

Asking for the license seems to be sufficient for me. Checking whether the software and all of its components are really Free Software is an expensive task. While thinking about it: What about an additional link to the GNU directory (if an entry exists); there the license has been thoroughly checked.

I was wondering if you plan to add more files to the newly created directories. In these case, I have to add them in the left navigation bar. On the contrary, if you don't inted to add anything, I'd prefer to move each related_software/lib*/index.wml file to related_software/lib*.wml. This way I don't have to add anything to the navbar. I will proceed with the latest option if you don't reply within one week. -- Lorenzo Cappelletti - Webmaster at http://www.gnupg.org/ Fingerprint: 8CDD 3408 53B2 6122 99DA EE37 1523 68FC D906 4C08 From lorenzo.cappelletti at email.it Sun Sep 5 14:39:28 2004 From: lorenzo.cappelletti at email.it (Lorenzo Cappelletti) Date: Sun Sep 5 16:24:56 2004 Subject: Dead links: gnupg.de/presse.html Message-ID: <20040905123928.GI4438@quark.standalone.it> From bogus@does.not.exist.com Mon Aug 30 13:25:03 2004 From: bogus@does.not.exist.com () Date: Sun Sep 5 16:24:56 2004 Subject: No subject Message-ID: chance to get the file back?

This causes a major issue when exporting the site to a mirror because the link returns a 404. We've got two solutions: 1. make links absolute: this is the simplest solution. 2. mirror manuals and HOWTOs as well: increases mirror traffic, but documents are backed up. I'd prefer the latest solution since the increased traffic is just a peak at the beginning because those documents are seldmoly updated, but documents are backed up. Nevertheless, this solution requires Werner's intervention. -- Lorenzo Cappelletti - Webmaster at http://www.gnupg.org/ Fingerprint: 8CDD 3408 53B2 6122 99DA EE37 1523 68FC D906 4C08 From lorenzo.cappelletti at email.it Sun Sep 5 14:36:36 2004 From: lorenzo.cappelletti at email.it (Lorenzo Cappelletti) Date: Sun Sep 5 16:25:07 2004 Subject: Dead links: ML messages Message-ID: <20040905123636.GH4438@quark.standalone.it> Envite sent me the other day a webalyzer report of his mirror site at Rolomaso. I tried to and categorize the types of dead links and few of them need to be discussed here. One dead-link category is related to ML messages. I remember the ML server had few problems in the recent past and we lost a few messages. I'd like to ask Werner if he could restore those messages or if'd better definitively forget about them and fix them all, hoping that they were not that important. About this, I should point out that a few dead links to lost ML messages are from FAQs. -- Lorenzo Cappelletti - Webmaster at http://www.gnupg.org/ Fingerprint: 8CDD 3408 53B2 6122 99DA EE37 1523 68FC D906 4C08 From wk at gnupg.org Mon Sep 6 10:06:36 2004 From: wk at gnupg.org (Werner Koch) Date: Mon Sep 6 10:08:49 2004 Subject: Dead links: ML messages In-Reply-To: <20040905123636.GH4438@quark.standalone.it> (Lorenzo Cappelletti's message of "Sun, 5 Sep 2004 14:36:36 +0200") References: <20040905123636.GH4438@quark.standalone.it> Message-ID: <87fz5vddo3.fsf@wheatstone.g10code.de> On Sun, 5 Sep 2004 14:36:36 +0200, Lorenzo Cappelletti said: > I'd like to ask Werner if he could restore those messages or if'd better > definitively forget about them and fix them all, hoping that they were It will take me a lot of time to locate these messages. Unfortunaltley I don't have this time right now. If someone else wants to take reponsibilty for the MLs, let me know.
