It's not development related tho. And most people really don't need to know it. I suppose etc/motd will eventually be updated to point to it also. > This is information that does need to go > to /all/ developers, not just to the infrastructure-announce list Well, you can't please all of them. Frankly, I think most of the posts to d-d-a have no place on that list in the first place. If it's the list DD are required to subscribe to we should try to also send stuff there that they *read*. I hardly read all of the posts sent there. What's the number of affected DDs here? 10? 20? I think dia was the appropriate for that mail. The pointer in buxy's mail was also fine, tho I wouldn't have placed it quite as prominently. > The use of ~user/.ssh/authorized_keys files has been disabled since > DSA1571 was announced.
