Re: [GNC] Nabble Delay? (was Re: Future Payments)

2018-07-27 Thread Adrien Monteleone
I certainly never meant to imply conversations need immediate replies. We’re 
all over the planet and are awake at different instances in time. But I’ve 
noticed threads that proceed as if some posts aren’t being seen at the time a 
user makes a reply, and indeed, as DavidT noted, perhaps they aren’t based on 
this delay issue which was my suspicion.

Certainly, I don’t think this is something that needs to be (or even could be) 
addressed, it was just a curiosity.

Adrien

But if he’s subscribed to the list, why would a SMTP based reply from his 
subscribed address get held? I would think in that case Nabble isn’t being used 
so it shouldn’t trigger the moderation flag.

I have sent David a personal email explaining why this is so. The
moderator and the poster are actually in the same time zone, but one is
retired and one works, so we use the internet at different times.

David T, you have it to a T.
The delay occurs where people have chosen not to subscribe to the
mailing lists and use an alternate mailing list reader to send emails
to the list.

Re: [GNC] Nabble Delay? (was Re: Future Payments)

2018-07-27 Thread DaveC49
Adrien,

I do use Nabble and also get the user list posts by email but as I am in
Australia I sometiimes notice there is a long delay associated with being in
this timezone. I'm not sure where the moderators are located but, I tend to
post usually in the morning AEST (UTC -10:00) and my posts don't often
appear on Nabble, until the next morning so often the issue has been dealt
with by the time a post gets up. We need to be aware that not all responders
are necessarily in the same time zone.

This never seemed to be a problem a couple of years ago but maybe the
location of the moderator(s) has changed and/or they only have a narrow time
window available to them to lookover posts. Again no criticism of the
moderators intended or to be inferred.  I have never really expected
immediate responses in any case so I don't find it too much of a problem but
it does make conversations on a topic difficult at times.

The delay is not just whether one is subscribed to the mail  lists or not
though. I am subscribed to both gnucash-dev and gnucash-user but use Nabble
a lot of the time and my posts to both are still passed through a moderator
and it does not matter whether I reply using Nabble online or by email I
still receive an email saying my post is awaiting moderation.

Re: [GNC] Nabble Delay? (was Re: Future Payments)

2018-07-26 Thread Adrien Monteleone
My Apologies David. I saw the ’Sent from: ...nabble.com...’ at the bottom of 
the message from you that I was reading and didn’t look closely enough. It was 
part of the quoted message from abd34, not part of your reply. (facepalm)

But you have well explained the message delay issue for me. I understand now.

I think I also need to slow down and read and ponder more thoroughly before 
hitting ’send.’ I seem to be displaying itchy finger syndrome.

Adrien

Re: [GNC] Nabble Delay? (was Re: Future Payments)

2018-07-26 Thread David T. via gnucash-user
Huh???

Adrien, I do not use Nabble. Never have. Never will. I find everything about 
Nabble annoying. 

One big issue with Nabble is that messages from people who use Nabble, but are 
NOT subscribed to gnucash-user get delayed in appearing on gnucash-user, since 
they must pass through the moderator before appearing at gnucash-user (this is 
in no way to be construed as a criticism of either the moderation or the 
moderator!). This delay means that responses sent via Nabble from Nabble users 
that HAVE subscribed to gnucash-user come through before the messages to which 
they are replying.

Because there *are* others using Nabble as their primary access point, I have 
found that I have to double-check at lists.gnucash.org to see whether there are 
other replies for a given message.

WRT to the thread below, when I look at lists.gnucash.org, I see that my reply 
follows directly from adb34’s (terse) nabble posting, and directly addresses 
their question. I was fully aware of your message, but the OP reply suggested 
that they hoped to have some mechanism for tracking future expenses in GnuCash 
without creating a transaction that appears on the books. My reply was meant to 
expand on that point a little more directly than your original reply, which was 
accurate but clearly hadn’t satisfied their particular itch.

[GNC] Nabble Delay? (was Re: Future Payments)

2018-07-26 Thread Adrien Monteleone
At first I suspected that since the OP was using Nabble, the communication 
problem was with that site or that the OP was seeing a cached page and thus not 
seeing the most recent replies.

But I see David, that you’re using Nabble as well, so either you have caching 
turned off, or you simply are long in the habit of force-reloading before 
replying. (or there is some other explanation, because your end of the 
conversation is never disjointed.) But this is at the least the 10th time in 
recent memory I’ve questioned whether others can see, or have seen, certain 
replies. Some threads progress as if certain posters are not getting all list 
messages. Maybe the page reload is JS feature of Nabble (like some news sites) 
and the user is blocking scripts or it uses a really short page TTL, and those 
users have their browsers set to ignore TTL and force cache instead.

OR, Nabble just has a bit of a delay and by chance some people reply before 
seeing other replies already sent out by Mailman.
