[android-developers] Re: Android google groups web page -- is it broken?
Yeah, I think this google groups thing needs serious work. Comparing this interface to something like StackOverflow, well SO just looks so much better. Google needs to bring some android-style interface magic over to the groups. On Tue, Dec 30, 2008 at 12:45 AM, Al Sutton wrote: > > I'm pretty sure there is a manual spam checker at work.

[android-developers] Re: Android google groups web page -- is it broken?
I'm pretty sure there is a manual spam checker at work. I think they're in the west coast USA and get around to checking the held posts sometime between 4 and 8 pm GMT because that's when I usually see a rush of posts come through. You may find that they're looking for questionable posts which they may not want distributed around that time as well. I guess if you want to post without Google controlling what appears you'll need to look at using one of the non-Google controlled forums. Al.

[android-developers] Re: Android google groups web page -- is it broken?
All my postings that I sent within the last 0.5 hour through e-mail all showed up in my in-box, as well as on the web site. I made 1 post through the web site about 0.5 hours ago. It still didn't show up. It's to this thread "OpenGL on T-Mobile G1: How to turn OpenGL on and off with SurfaceHolder" (http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/thread/9cfd4f731f80e3b1/d153de0cd1a07b99?lnk=gst&q=Mathias#d153de0cd1a07b99) What's more strange, I posted one message through my e-mail about 2 weeks ago (title = How to put a Translucent GL View on top of a 2D view"). It showed up in my in-box as well as on the web page, immediately. But about 2 hours later I checked, the post was deleted from the web page. I though I said some taboo and was censored! Someone from Google really need to fix this.

I hadn't made the connection between the Web interface and replying by email, though that could be the distinguishing factor. You might try posting a few by email and see if they work better.
