-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hey everyone. Sorry for blasting the list this morning with all the calendar messages. I think I have sorted out the issue now, but I wanted to explain shortly here what happened.
There were .ics files sent out for the various workgroup meetings. I set up a calendar in thunderbird and imported them into there to get reminders for when the meetings come up. Unfortunately, however, the .ics files listed the hot@ and hot-members@ email addresses as "attendees" of the meetings. Thunderbird apparently notifies everyone attedning a meeting when a change to the event takes place. So due to the interaction between thunderbird and my google calendar sync the software ended up sending out a bunch of notices to the attendees which unfortunately went to everyone on the list. I temporarily disabled the calendar, went into the calendar on google and deleted all the events from there (telling it not to inform attendees of the changes), so the emails should stop now. I do however think the .ics system is a good one for tracking when these meetings happen as it automatically handles time zones, and people can get automatic reminders in their phone, etc, for when the meeting is about to start. So I think the .ics files would be good to use, we just need to be careful to make sure that there are no "attendees" listed in them so that notifications don't get sent out like that, or if we are going to list attendees, make sure not to include the mailing lists. Anyway, sorry for the big mess. I definitely learned something new today. :) - -AndrewBuck -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJUidP0AAoJEK7RwIfxHSXbGB0QAMC1uqouRxrPggitnA7kQP1E uCsZEi/d9rBaHq5EOMvFPAq5HV8TpOyDtVgkwCIOBC9VJEkMrMZhjY48TI4yyKIK nMjA63blzwXmYl0bkN8g1Mz2GyOEb+UOatWL8Z0FSkfYHW3yHmI/RANwmIFjlDiG Punl/GT6/jcxemi7AQkQemFtjLeSKO9RvUECPnN0K1agLFtvRcCL6L4VfJuOvuRF iojJArwGIEDBOc+ApSxY3boG7gRShB9KjPYmRGRiU6edn2SE2nUYTGYC0e6l6cZm MhvPUoyyFPvcC5WBjlnAjMRFuoAOhTFUnIGPF8z5BQnpP0NHWnam5fnYNLSX2Hhs CMNKmQFfHmZq9vDJpkT/XdXZyqxCrWl11CKk0brn8hXQC3IwQUULjmiddsg+mys4 lU9uWh5vJDK06gaxs43Xh3iJb2KsqwyGdLZwG6dsHzWytZZUZpkzBrth/B6O9j/W 57C1nQlc8HLnn7MLFK2XKC4/GiJhhvbDOUwZBCMGy+Bmowk2Z5+HQsREcakQvVHf GcrGlRcUI+M/OigAlISz6Ok/Nc0QfKsRprH57PIOYk8zGp6+kt4PETeawG5Yb8f0 EYCORy/WaPoLXyfONkcE7ySmJ5ZAedaEOX37edrofM+dK9hGLVEYgYwNuCkYYPmM YGhfMbSFK6JSSFgJ6tMn =V6D4 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ HOT mailing list HOT@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/hot
