The tla archive was probably created with an ancient version of Arch -
my trusty old git-archimport failed to import it when I tried
yesterday. I think you only need to republish it with a more modern
tla (to a temp directory!) and try the import from there - in any
case. if you need help with the import, drop me a line. git-archimport
might need a fixup or two ;-)

python modules for handling disks and filesystems
by Ahmed Kamal
Hi everyone,
I am working on some python code for an upstream project and I will
need to handle disks and filesystems. i.e. "mounting", "umounting",
"querying whether a directory is a mount point", "getting a file
system size" and such ...
Does such a module exist, or do I run shells commands and parse ?

kdebluetooth4... update? new review?
by Gilboa Davara
Hello all,
I'm maintaining the kdebluetooth package.
While working under F8/KDE3.5, the package is hopelessly broken under
F9/KDE4. (Due to various reasons; not all of them fixable).
Luckily for me, mere minutes before I was about to orphan/EOL it (due to
upstream's early death), the kdebluetooth team woke up and released a
new version, kdebluetooth4 (QT4/KDE4) which is an early alpha release.
(v0.1)
Two questions:
A. Does major version bump require a new review?
B. Should I push an early alpha as an update that obsoletes an existing,
yet broken package?

No response for bug reports
by Guido Ledermann
Hello,
over a month ago I discovered a problem with HAL and large USB drives
and filed a bug. In the meantime, I neither got any response nor was
asked for further information or something similar. Just silence.
It's not that I would not understand that there are other problems
that are more important or more serious, but how can I know if I'm
read by the assignee? Should I be more patient? Is there a leak?
Cheers
Guido

Mono 2.0 preview 1 - heads up
by Paul F. Johnson
Hi,
I'm currently building mono-2.0 preview 1.
Unfortunately, it's going to be slow as it's being done on my laptop rather
than my main box which has some HDD issues currently (they're knackered!). Due
to the number of changes, when things have built, I'll upload to my
fedorapeople area the i386 and srpms to the new packages.
Can maintainers of other mono packages please check their packages against the
new ones and build if required. That way, we can minimise the disruption that
tends to happen when something major is altered.
I'm hoping to upload at some point tomorrow.

Heads up - Mono
by Paul F. Johnson
Hi,
I'm expecting the next beta of Mono to hit the servers today. There are
quite a few changes since 1.9.1-2, so please be aware that things may be
broken and need rebuilding.
Sorry about that. In the words of the good book "Normal service will be
resumed just as soon as we know what normal is anyway"
Also, please note that as of Mono 2.0, the licence changes to MIT rather
that the mix and match that it currently is. This is happening right
across the mono family as of version 2 (though probably not for the
likes of gtk-sharp2 and gnome-sharp)

OT: (?) Calling on Fedora/RedHat ML managers to clean up Fedora-list.
by Gilboa Davara
Hello all,
It seems that Fedora-list have replaced Fedora-devel as the prime
staging place for useless, 100-post-long political debates.
As far as I could count, there are at-least 4 different political
threads current running in -users: (All by the same individuals, BTW)
- "Misunderstanding GPL's terms and conditions as restrictions"
- "That old GNU/Linux argument"
- "A long rebuttal to the Linux-is-the-engine fallacy"
- "Why is Fedora not a Free GNU/Linux distributions?"
Now I am aware that I could setup a toll filter, deleting all messages
that are being posted by said individuals (I already do), but
never-the-less, filling my Internet pipe with 100's of useless
messages is -very- annoying.
Would it be possible to create a Fedora-policy ML and get people to
stop spamming (either willingly or by using blacklists) the main MLs?
Thanks,
- Gilboa
