Hi, the OpenPKG registration process is still a big annoyance and hindering adoption/usage of OpenPKG a lot.
E.g. the stupid registration feature requires email validation within a short period of time (some minutes). This breaks much too often! Think about people doing something else in the meantime and especially consider the very commin smtp greylisting. An additional idiocy is that after the registration timed out the system dissallows to start over :-(( https://registry.openpkg.org/ase "Email address already in use since 2006-06-28 20:39:26" This is now the third time that I tried to register and the system is still not working reasonably. In case the fascist(*) registry process does not get relaxed very soon I will stop recommending OpenPKG as a solution and will move away my systems and OSS projects from using OpenPKG. Annoyed, -- martin (*) I consider very tight timing requirements and removing of already working features (like unrestricted download of old versions and breaking exisiting installations and setups as an unfriendly action. -- http://www.erfrakon.com/ Erlewein, Frank, Konold & Partner - Beratende Ingenieure und Physiker ______________________________________________________________________ The OpenPKG Project www.openpkg.org User Communication List openpkg-users@openpkg.org
