[libreoffice-website] Extension site sign-up

2015-04-08 Thread Paolo Pelloni
Hi, I got a request on asklibreoffice on how to sign-up for the
extension site. 
I have checked myself but I could only find a login page, a password
reset and a registration form for submitting extensions. 
If a user would like just to sign-up to rate extensions what is she
supposed to do?

Thanks
Paolo

she could use the form and write in the explanation why she needs an
account that she wants to rate extensions.

An explanation?  I don't think we need that or else everybody will be put off 
by that. We could just have a sign up mechanism and that's it.

Charles.

the explanation is very easy. We activated the default sign up mechanism
in the past, but we got about 600 or 700 accounts with no contribution
(robot accounts or the like) for each site. We had to manual clean up
both sites (extensions and templates) and that was a very tedious task
(three people worked on that over many days) (comparing lists and
deleting unused accounts).

The form at the bottom of the site is protected with a question-answer
proof and I could manage the requests.

If we need an additional solution I could create a second form for each
site, if people need an account to rate products.

Regards,
Andreas

Then I misunderstood what you first wrote: I thought you wanted people to write 
about their reasons to request access. A captcha would fix this I guess?

I tried it but a captcha didn't help (only for a short time). Thus I
used a question-answer proof for the form. That seemed to work since
more than a year.
