Perl 5.14 now available
by River Tarnell 01 May '11

01 May '11

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, Perl 5.14.0-RC1 is now installed as /usr/bin/perl5.14. 5.14 will eventually become the default version of Perl; you may want to test your Perl programs with it before then. This is a pre-release version of Perl, so it may contain more bugs than usual. Please report any issues in JIRA. - river. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (SunOS) iEYEARECAAYFAk28ggkACgkQIXd7fCuc5vI9agCgws7XiUDPVlSsaOeDzae0jxcV eTIAnjChG53PvDAwBo93ux4FhS3fmHxU =3qSA -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

PGP support for ts-admins address
by River Tarnell 14 Apr '11

14 Apr '11

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, The ts-admins contact address is now PGP-enabled. This means all mail coming this from address will be signed, and if you send encrypted email, you will receive encrypted email in reply. Notifications to admins are also encrypted, and the ticket system's web interface is accessed via SSL, so your mail should never be sent over the Internet in plaintext. However, mail is stored unencrypted in the database, so this is not secure if the ticket system itself is compromised. For this to work, your key needs to be available from the PGP keyserver network (the ticket system uses wwwkeys.uk.pgp.net). The key ID for ts-admins is: pub 4096R/E04DCDD7 2011-04-13 [expires: 2012-04-12] Key fingerprint = 5A5E 8634 DD8E DB05 F36E 3969 7035 1043 E04D CDD7 uid Wikimedia Toolserver ticket system <accounts(a)toolserver.org> uid Wikimedia Toolserver ticket system <ts-admins(a)toolserver.org> ... which is available from wwwkeys, and is also listed at <https://fingerprints.toolserver.org>. - river. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (SunOS) iEYEARECAAYFAk2l9k8ACgkQIXd7fCuc5vIK3ACfbtDHqppbthS4PYQgMUeg/QSK GdoAoL2dhZOIgP6W1jWZ9JogIh/F/Fi1 =BIvL -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Maintaince on toolserver.namespacename on Wednesday
by DaB. 07 Apr '11

07 Apr '11

Hello all, because of some corruptions (mostly double entries) inside the table toolserver.namespacename I will do a maintaince on Wednesday beginning 21:30UTC*. I will truncate the table and regenerate it which should take between 1 and 2 minutes. During this time the table will be incomplete and so tools which rely on it can be fail. To minimize the effect I will handle each server independently (truncate table and regenerate it on server a, then truncate table and regenerate it on server b and so on). sql-toolserver (the master of the toolserver-db) will be the first one to update, then the others. Not affected will be the old table toolserver.namespace which is deprecated and you should NOT use it anymore. Sincerly, DaB. * http://time.tcx.org.uk/utc/2011-04-06/21:30 -- Userpage: [[:w:de:User:DaB.]] — PGP: 2B255885
