Hi, > The list will be all availids.
Is that all emails people have subscribed to all lists or just certain lists? Or something based on Apache IDs? Or what's recorded in LDAP? Each of this is going to generate a different set of email addresses. Some things that come to mind. Have these been considered? - Some contributors do not have an Apache ID / are not in LDAP. (You get one when you become a committer.) - Some people have subscribed under multiple emails addresses to different lists - Emails address people use are not always the ones recorded in ldap (see for instance see the number of PMCs recorded as not signed up to their private lists as reported by Whimsy, when they have just signed up via other addresses). - People have multiple email address recorded in LDAP If instance if I look myself up LDAP it has several email addresses for me, but I also use other non recorded email addresses to subscribe to some lists. > There are numerous ways it helps spamming because for 1, people replying > with questions won't spm 7k other people. We currently have 7131 committers, if you included contributors it would be double that (or more). It’s still unclear how wide this group is that the survey link will sent to using this method. When sending to a list the reply to address could be set so that people don’t spam each other. I assume we would want replies to go to the dev@diversity list, if people have any questions about the survey or are having trouble filling it in we can answer them. > Infra will generate the list. I expect it to be a trivial ldap to csv. Our contributors are not (that I’m aware) stored in LDAP, only committers are. > For the social media and pmc posts, we would use a single reusable survey > token. So we are posting to the lists as well? It might be best to put exactly what the plan is on a wiki page so everyone is clear what is expected to happen. Thanks,. Justin
