Package: contributors.debian.org
Hi, listing contributions from debian.net is often a false positive, because a lot of those services are offline concerning the ping status. On index.debian.net you see a lot of sevices are not pinable, but even a pinable status does not mean the service is up and running. To it seems that you only check if a service was registed for debian.net (in DNS) but that is not an activity. Ive already wrote an examples to the MIA team (see below). Another is https://contributors.debian.org/contributor/skx/ Steve has only an entry for faces.d.net, which is offline. The "service" of djpig on X-DISABLED-DSA-archive.d.net is online, but is it a running service? Either we need regualr reviews of index.debian.net or more accurate infomration, or remove it from contributors. From: Thomas Lange <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Date: Wed, 30 Jul 2025 14:00:36 +0200 Hi, I was wondering if you know that information on https://contributors.debian.org/source/debian.net%20service/ctype/service_maintainer/ is wrong and that may lead to some MIA people, that you do not be aware of. For e.g. https://contributors.debian.org/contributor/djpig/ shows Running a .debian.net service but if you search for djpig on https://index.debian.net/ the services of him are listed in red Also connecting a service for e.g. connect to https://packages.debian.net fails completly. Why does contributors.debian.org then list the service as contributing a d.net service until July 2025? So, this may a problem of contributors.debian.org but with wrong data, the MIA team can also not do their work. The other sources of djpig shows the last activity in 2016, so IMO he is MIA. -- best regards Thomas
