The dvn-auth mailing list has been fun but we're retiring it for a number of reasons. First, this list is quite low traffic. So is the main dataverse-community Google Group. We've decided to ask everyone here to join the Google Group instead: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/dataverse-community All things auth are on topic for the Google Group. There's really no need to split up the community. People seem to agree: http://irclog.iq.harvard.edu/dataverse/2015-07-16#i_21793 Second, this list was created back when Redmine was used for ticket tracking and there was no way for people outside IQSS to comment on issues. This has all changed with the move to GitHub issues so there are more ways to reach out. Comment away on those auth tickets! A number of Google docs related to auth allow public comments as well. Third, recently some subscribers to this lists have received many strange "unsubscribe me" and "reset my password" emails as chronicled at https://lists.iq.harvard.edu/pipermail/dvn-auth/2015-July/000031.html . Nobody needs this, especially for a low-traffic list. We'll just shut it down. Long live the Google Group. (Long live http://chat.dataverse.org as well, the preferred communication channel of the coordinators of the Dataverse Auth Community Group: http://community.dataverse.org/community-groups/auth.html :) Finally, the list has "dvn" in the name but it's now a legacy term. We call the software "Dataverse". :) We'll keep the archives of this list around but I'll unsubscribe everyone after sending this message. Thank you for everyone's participation! Please do consider joining the Google Group. And please don't be shy about asking questions about auth or discussing auth there. If we overwhelm the group, we can always split off into a separate list again someday! :) Phil -- Philip Durbin Software Developer for http://dataverse.org http://www.iq.harvard.edu/people/philip-durbin
