I would like to set the date for shutting down these Oracle hosted
resources
as March 15. (no Shakespeare references, please)
This will include mailing lists, mail forwarder, remaining web pages,
identity server.
What are people's thoughts on this? (sooner is possible, I believe)
Hi Andrew,
Would it be possible to get one more blast out to the legacy
announcement list before we shut it down?
Sure - I can do that.
If so, I can craft a short
note, directing them to the new lists, etc.
That would be great.
How about something like this:
=====================
Subject: Final Reminder on OpenOffice.org mailing list and email
forwarder shutdown
Please note that the legacy mailing lists for the OpenOfficeOffice.org
project will be retired effective March 16h. New mailing lists have
been created, at Apache, for users as well as project participants.
If you wish to continue to receive occasional email updates from the
project, for new releases,etc., then please subscribe to our
announcement email list by sending an email to
ooo-announce-subscr...@incubator.apache.org. Information on other
mailing lists for the project can be found here:
http://incubator.apache.org/openofficeorg/mailing-lists.html
Also on March 16th we will shutdown the legacy email forwarder for the
openoffice.org domain. If you have and use an openoffice.org email
address alias, then please note the important information described on
the following page:
https://blogs.apache.org/OOo/entry/retirement_of_openoffice_org_email
Rob,
maybe we could update that blog entry adding some info about
Extensions/Templates accounts in the "Some special instructions for
OpenOffice-related services" section?
Starting from tomorrow Extensions and Templates users authenticating
at openoffice.org won't be able to access those systems. As I
explained in another thread we need to get some info to recreate those
accounts and allow users to change their passwords.
Sure.. What do you want me to add to that post? Are there some
specific instructions?
-Rob
We might instruct users that to convert their accounts they just need
to enter their openoffice.org username and password and ask them to
read the messages shown. If they do not remember the password, the
link "Request new password" pages
http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/user
http://templates.services.openoffice.org/user
allows them to receive a link to change e-mail address and password
(note that the two websites use different logins).
Note that the "request new password" will work until the
@openoffice.org alias will be active.
Last but not least, the possibility to use the old password will work
until the Oracle authentication server is operational.
VERY IMPORTANT: Consider that both kiling the alias forwarding and
shutting down the Oracle authentication server will prevent users to
login. I hope we can keep alive at least one of those services at
least until we'll get from Oracle all necessary information to migrate
users.
Roberto
As I have communicated to Roberto, I am in the process of supplying him
with the id@oo.o->email list.
I am just working through the last phases of this. There may be a short
window where user migrations to the new infrastructure will be blocked,
but this should be measured in days. infra is also in on the
communications.
There is no reason to take drastic action at this point, such as
spamming the entire list for the small fraction that would be interested
in the communication.

Roberto
We thank you for your past interest and support of the OpenOffice.org
project and look forward to your continued support at Apache.
Rob Weir, on behalf of the Apache OpenOffice Project Management Committee
=====================
If this still makes sense in the morning, we can go with that or
something similar.
Do you need to send it, or would I send it and then you moderate me in?
