I took this as a request, so he needn't worry anymore. Thanks for the link to his profile. >> What I think is that else, spammers will soon find out that they can >> upload anything into a certain category, and we'll have bad Inkscape >> extensions, keyboard files, filters etc. that don't belong, and a >> website that doesn't have the capacity to save them all. > >I don't quite understand that.

So I'm not sure what > you mean. - The quota exists to prevent people we don't know, and who may potentially upload malware or use inkscape.org as their own little 'cloud service' from uploading too much. The space on the server is limited. If we allow some categories to be exempt from the limitation, people will notice. Which is, of course, an encouragement for the 'good' uploads we want to have, but also one for those we do not want. And those files can then pool up in the categories that are, in some way, special, as they are meant not only for looking and admiring, but also for downloading to people's computers. We neither want those categories to be full of files people upload there because they don't have any space left, nor do we want to loose control over the disk space. If we give people we trust more space on request, no problem.

Re: [Inkscape-docs] gallery upload quota
Hi Maren, Do you mean that Lazur already asked for higher quota? This is his profile: https://inkscape.org/en/~Lazur > What I think is that else, spammers will soon find out that they can > upload anything into a certain category, and we'll have bad Inkscape > extensions, keyboard files, filters etc. that don't belong, and a > website that doesn't have the capacity to save them all. I don't quite understand that. I think you took a couple of steps in your logic, and only wrote the result. So I'm not sure what you mean.

Re: [Inkscape-docs] gallery upload quota
Hi Brynn, currently, I think it's best if they just ask for a raise of the quota (like Lazur did - can you give us a link to his profile so we can do this for the correct user?) What I think is that else, spammers will soon find out that they can upload anything into a certain category, and we'll have bad Inkscape extensions, keyboard files, filters etc. that don't belong, and a website that doesn't have the capacity to save them all.
