#4405 renames and new requests for Fedora Board lists and trac instances
Closed: Fixed None Opened 9 years ago by mattdm.

Let me know if I should split this into multiple tickets. Background is https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/advisory-board/2014-June/012586.html

Specifically, I'd like:

  1. The "advisory-board" mailing list renamed to "board-discuss". Preferably, this would be a rename rather than a new list (with an alias for the old name?), but I don't know how much of a pain that is. We could do a new list and close the old one if necessary.

  2. fedora-advisory-board IRC channel closed down, #fedora-board created with zodbot and so on. (If #fedora-advisory-board can be made to bounce people to that channel, so much the better.)

  3. Rename existing "board" trac instance to "board-private", carrying all existing tickets. (If this is not possible, close existing instance and create new one with that name.)

  4. Create a new public trac named "board". (If the rename wasn't possible, "board-public" would be okay -- but less ideal.)


  1. done. I left the old archives as well as moving them to the new name. Folks filtering and such will all change, so you might want to send out a post asking them to use the new name and adjust things, etc.

  2. fedora-board exists and is set, but #fedora-advisory-board was never registered, so I can't do much with it right now. I might be able to get it set from freenode, or we could just tell people to move?

  3. done. There may be some config cleanup we need to do, can you check that things look ok?

  4. done. New blank trac at that space owned by you.
