[Freecol-developers] SF Quirks

[w***@genial.ms]

Hi,

the Admin thing does not work for me, I get "Error 403 Admin access required".
I got a mail from SF that Caleb's posting needs approval and I did that,
though I needed to log in again although it showed I was logged in already.
Often when I reply to an issue it asks for re-login too, then forgets the
text I wrote when I just use back button from browser, then on second try
it mostly just works, though I got the feeling it wants a linefeed at
end of such reply or maybe thats just coincidental.
Then it does not send me timely the resposes from the mailing list, I can
only guess its some timezone-quirk with the mailing list server. I only
saw the replies cause I was looking at the archive on the website by luck.
Those SF quirks are getting on my nerves slowly.


Greetings,

OK, my mistake. The source text is attached (markdown format), if you
send me an edited version I will put it in.

I reckon that is just a timeout of some sort. I have seen it, but its
pretty rare for me.

Sure its not just due to some of the list participants being distributed
across time zones and just outright unpredictable in when they can post?

I literally meant the mailing list server is delaying mails between hours and
a day, even my own. I could read my mails and a bunch of replies on the SF
website, but my own mailbox was still empty.
Only this morning I got the delayed mails.

mail queue. is this a a linux mail server? feel free to email me off list

Hi,

I edited the text to change the issues and also found some typos.
It is attached to the email.
Please proof-read the text - as you know, English is not my first language
and I'm not perfectly skilled in its grammar.
