Hi all,

the GitHub Services are deprecated and are replaced by GitHub web hooks.
Basically the Services provided an additional logic to process the hooks.

[email protected]
--------------------------

The only problematic GitHub Service is the email Service which for YaST sends
notifications to [email protected]. There is no simple replacement, we 
would
need a publicly reachable server which can send emails to 
[email protected].

But the question is: do we really need that? Does somebody really read the 
emails
from [email protected]?

Yes, I do. Religiously. Every day. I depend on that to watch and see what I, as a non-YaST Team Member, can contribute. That is where I spot the typos and grammar errors that I have been fixing.

When I understand coding, I will also watch for anything I can do to fix there or improve.

Also, when I see what is going on, it sometimes gives me ideas that I can suggest for possible improvements in the Users' experience.


You can see the activity log also at the main https://github.com/ page, or 
there is a
news feed link at the bottom. That can be also an alternative to the commit 
mails.
Would that be enough for you?

I was not aware of this. Do not know if there is anything obvious telling non-YaST Team Members who wish to Contribute should look there.

Perhaps there is a way to get that more obvious to interested would-be contributors.


(Personally I do not read the commit ML, I'm asking here for feedback to see if 
there
is any use for that.)

I think I already answered that.  But, maybe I am the only one?

I am busy with openSUSE Elections at the moment, but I will check the above links ASAP and see if they are a suitable replacement in cases such as mine.

I will report back as soon as I do.

Thanks,
