Actually, truth is a lot of developers are not happy with the osgeo auth integration. Eg me. I was recently in a discussion about qgis with a co-worker who had a small suggestion about how we could improve the software. I thought this was the perfect time to show him how to file a feature request in the hope that doing so would help him understand better about how open source works and how he can get involved. So I show him hub, then watch in total embarrassment as he struggles to find out how to register for the site. And then when he finds out how to get to the registration page, he's asked for a "mantra". Obviously, he has no idea what this is, and turns to ask me about it. And I have no clue what the actual mantra is. And I know that trying to explain to him something like "ok, now you go to irc and find someone on this channel who knows that magic phrase..." is totally pointless and he'll never do that. End result - no report filed, I can't remember what his suggestion was, he's left thinking open-source is complex and not beginner friendly, and I'm left embarrassed because I can't even help him file a ticket (let alone get it fixed!). I realise that the current setup was done by hard working volunteers, and I applaud their efforts, but the sad truth is that it's just not working anymore and we need a better solution. :( Nyall > > > > Let me know if you have a problem resetting your password (though I >> >> cannot reset it for you either...), then we figure out another way to >> issue your problem. >> >> Regards, >> >> Richard Duivenvoorde > > > > Cheers > Bernd > > >> >> _______________________________________________ >> Qgis-developer mailing list >> Qgis-developer@lists.osgeo.org >> List info: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer >> Unsubscribe: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer > > > > -- > Bernd Vogelgesang > Siedlerstraße 2 > 91083 Baiersdorf/Igelsdorf > Tel: 09133-825374 > > _______________________________________________ > Qgis-developer mailing list > Qgis-developer@lists.osgeo.org > List info: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer > Unsubscribe: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer _______________________________________________ Qgis-developer mailing list Qgis-developer@lists.osgeo.org List info: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer Unsubscribe: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer _______________________________________________ Qgis-developer mailing list Qgis-developer@lists.osgeo.org List info: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer Unsubscribe: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer
