have you setup the alert message to be sent to your mail account? Then
you could wait for some minutes before forwarding to these mailing lists.


It is almost always useless to forward those messages to the list. The 
noise is very high. Especially simultaneous messages about both wiki and 
forum being down are symptoms of a problem that is not server-specific 
(the two services are on different servers), usually some maintenance 
operation by Infra that, as it happened, will be completed within a few 
minutes.

This is the recommended way for people to subscribe to alerts: all you 
need is an e-mail address. We could have chosen to subscribe the lists 
to alerts, but it doesn't make sense in light of the above considerations.

I agree with Alexandro ...

The site looks too crowded with the globes and stuff.

+1 if you mean the balloons and confetti at the upper left corner of the
home page.

RE: apache testing volunteer

[Dennis E. Hamilton]

Yes,

Rashida can subscribe to qa@, issues@, and create an account on the bugzilla at 
.

It is valuable to have external testing for confirmation and narrowing in, with 
the reporter and others, on the actual issue condition.  In this case it will 
also be important to become familiar with the product.

When we have a prospective release candidate, there can be testing against a 
new build to see if a reproducible failure has been cured or not, and there are 
no obvious regressions.

Kay Schenk can point to materials on QA activities.  (We could use help 
updating and expanding these too, especially on how we work through the 
bugzilla stages and are encouraging of user participation.)
