That's a valid concern. And I just poked someone in the wiki team to ask how difficult this challenge would be. From a technical standpoint, it's not that difficult to install an extension from mediawiki to do mass edits. At the very least, we could produce a list of all pages that have that string and a group of us volunteer to go through pages one-by-one to clean it up. Obviously this only applies to pages where the full "openSUSE Build Service" string exists. Those where OBS is only used, no need to worry. So... I'm volunteering to jump on on the cleanup effort if that's what is eventually decided upon. I remind you all that again, we are only voting on a recommendation to give to the OBS team. We're not actually making a decision here. Thanks, Bryen -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscr...@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+h...@opensuse.org
