Mmm... can someone ban the spammer from the mailing list?
<isd>
kentonv: ^
<kentonv>
TimMc, isd, ugh... it's a different email address / google account every time, and they seem to have automated joining the group before posting, which means they don't get moderated
<kentonv>
not really sure what I can do
<isd>
I have no idea what moderation tools google groups provides
<ocdtrekkie>
I keep reporting them as abuse, but considering the platform, I don't expect it to improve on its own.
<ocdtrekkie>
We could move to an approval flow for the list, but then I imagine we'd need to tell people how to tell us they are real.
<isd>
Is there an option to moderate posts from new members?
<ocdtrekkie>
I don't know how often the dev list still gets new members.
<kentonv>
will mean more people confused why their posts don't post until I get around to approving... oh well
<ocdtrekkie>
Can you add additional moderators?
<isd>
I'd be willing to share some of the burden.

<ill_logic>
Is it easy to get really old versions of Sandstorm apps?
<kentonv>
ocdtrekkie, isd, made you both moderators, so I think you'll now get notification emails when there's stuff to moderate. Be warned, the UI you have to click through is terrible.
<isd>
Ok, cool.
<isd>
I will brace myself :P
<ocdtrekkie>
ill_logic: Relatively. What do you need?
<ocdtrekkie>
I am used to dealing with bad Google UI.
<isd>
ill_logic: iiuc the spks are still up there, and you should be able to just grab `https://app-index.sandstorm.io/packages/<package-id>`, but I don't know if there's a way to discover the correct value for `<package-id>`.
<ill_logic>
Jacob Weisz: Like, the oldest version of the etherpad app we can find.
<kentonv>
ocdtrekkie, Groups is significantly worse than average Google UI. :/
<kentonv>
do not under any circumstances open it on mobile
<ill_logic>
A nice to have, not vital.
<ocdtrekkie>
I have a bad habit of archiving spks. Also the legacy app market has an extremely old release as well.
<ocdtrekkie>
I can probably get you almost any old SPK that's been relatively widely distributed.
<kentonv>
FWIW I think the app market serves all old SPKs if you know the package ID
<ocdtrekkie>
You can probably find one or two older by seeing if a lower numbered Etherpad SPK is in the folder too. But these are all pre-App Market versions that don't even have most package metadata.
<ocdtrekkie>
At home I have a copy as far back as etherpad2.spk if you end up wanting older.
<ocdtrekkie>
Oh, it is in that directory on the server too.
<ocdtrekkie>
Just checked.
<ill_logic>
Is the directory something I'd have access to?
<ocdtrekkie>
They're all just at sandstorm.io/apps/etherpad2.spk for the legacy market.
<ocdtrekkie>
I just modified the URL from the listed release to find it.
<kentonv>
that's all the files in that directory FWIW
<kentonv>
pretty sure etherpad.spk is the first spk ever made
<ill_logic>
Jacob Weisz: okay I saved in thanks! you can undo it if you want
<ocdtrekkie>
Undo what?
<ill_logic>
Oh, sorry I thought you modified something on the server.
<ill_logic>
You just modified the url.
<ill_logic>
in your browser
<ocdtrekkie>
Nope, that's just always been there. Yeah.
<ocdtrekkie>
kentonv: Can you make my Gmail account the moderator? jtness@
<kentonv>
ocdtrekkie, done
<ocdtrekkie>
I have my real email subscribed, but due to Google account nonsense, I can't actually sign into anything with it or something.
<ocdtrekkie>
Weird account quirks with both Google and Microsoft led me to create separate aliases just to handle email from them respectively too. 🤷♂️
