It is available here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/spambayes/files/ Click the 1.1a6 folder to get at the files. Mark, can you put your Windows installer there (or point me at it and I'll stick it in place)? I moved the 1.1a2 and 1.1a3 folders into the OldFiles folder (not visible except to the project admins). I left 1.0.4 and 1.1a4 in place, but people should generally be using the 1.1a6 release unless it's demonstrated to have significant problems.

We currently try rsync'ing files to shell1.sourceforge.net but that fails now. It looks like I want something like rsync files montanaro,spambayes at web.sourceforge.net but that's not clear from the documentation I found so far.

I think I have most of the stuff done for the 1.1a6 release (md5 checksums, ascii armor GPG sigs, file sizes, etc). I also reworded the index.html and download.html pages slightly to nudge people in the direction of using the 1.1a6 release in preference to 1.0.4 or 1.1a4. I haven't the slightest idea how to verify the integrity of the distributions using the GPG sigs. Could someone please give that a go? The sigs are all in http://spambayes.sourceforge.net/sigs/ (which you currently can't read - I'll work on getting a directory listing going, hopefully tomorrow). The files are the name of the distribution file with ".asc" tacked onto the end. For example, for the 1.1a6 version of the Outlook installer: http://spambayes.sourceforge.net/sigs/spambayes-1.1a6.exe.asc I'm sure I've missed some things. If you see something please open a help ticket here: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=61702&atid=498103 (Project admins should of course feel free to just correct my mistakes themselves!) I hereby decree that the next version which goes out will be version 1.1b1. At the current rate of releases that should occur around June 2013. -- Skip Montanaro - skip at pobox.com - http://www.smontanaro.net/ From skip at pobox.com Fri Apr 2 11:53:13 2010 From: skip at pobox.com (skip at pobox.com) Date: Fri, 2 Apr 2010 04:53:13 -0500 Subject: [spambayes-dev] Updating website In-Reply-To: <19380.29683.871224.942734@montanaro.dyndns.org> References: <19380.29683.871224.942734@montanaro.dyndns.org> Message-ID: <19381.48777.563263.458850@montanaro.dyndns.org> me> Can someone give me a quick summary of how SourceForge website me> updates have changed?

I eventually figured that out. The scripts/make.rules file in the distribution has been updated. The only hitch is you have to define SFUSER so it knows what SF user to rsync as, e.g.: make install SFUSER=montanaro Skip From sean.true at gmail.com Thu Apr 29 14:28:15 2010 From: sean.true at gmail.com (Sean True) Date: Thu, 29 Apr 2010 08:28:15 -0400 Subject: [spambayes-dev] Blast from the past. Message-ID: Some brief history, in case there are developers who weren't working on Spambayes 5 years ago ;-): I wrote the first crummy integration between Outlook and Spambayes, which worked really well (thanks to Tim), and was so ugly that Mark was inspired to replace it with something cool. After letting Mark do the heavy lifting, I eventually built a commercial product (InBoxer Antispam) which used Spambayes at the core, 'specially Marks integration code. Fast forward, oh, several years. InBoxer has customers who insist on using the product even though we've tried to kill it. Twice. And Outlook 2010 incompatibility is driving them nuts. I can't even tell them to go try Spambayes, because the same issues exist there. I have the following propositions, just to see if anyone is excited, err interested, or even unemployed. 1) We could contract with someone with experience to do the 2010 changes to the common code base, and then port those changes in our product. Payment to be negotiated, common code base changes freely usable in Spambayes. BTW, Mark H. is oversubscribed. Tried that. 2) We can offer a 1K prize to the developer submitting a patch/rev to the common code base that solves the problem to the satisfaction of the development lead (?Skip?) 2a) We could offer the the equivalent cash as a donation to the PSF if there is more interest. If there is any interest, please contact me directly as well as the list. -- Sean Sean True seant at inboxer.com CTO Inboxer @ Safecore, Inc ** -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
