[Systers-dev] status report

[Anna Granudd]

Hi,
I'm a bit early now to send my status report but I have friends from abroad
coming over tonight to stay over the weekend so I'll send my bi-weekly
status report now already.

The last two weeks I've been working on and fixing three bugs. The first one
was to make one template for all the listinfo-pages created, which can
handle both dlists as well as non dlists (with appropriate text for each)
and essay or no essay. The second bug I've been working on was the databases
being inconsistent when somebody changed their primary email address letting
them still send but not receive emails from the old address. I think this
should be solved now and it will be implemented and tested in the main
branch over the next few days. The last thing I've been working on was a
follow up on that list creators now can create either dlists or non dlists
(before all lists created were really dlists). After correcting this earlier
it was no longer possible to get emails to the subscribers of lists that
were non dlists (except through digest, or they could be found in the
archieves). It turned out that as a result of a missing footer for non
dlists an error was thrown but not caught so it all crashed without sending
out the emails. This now works the way it should and if the exception should
appear again it's caught.

For the next two weeks I intend to work on unsubscribing from threads being
confusing and parallel to that to work a bit on writing documentation. If
anybody has any ideas or wishes for the documentation I would be more than
happy for some input. Depending on how long time the unsubscription bug
takes I might also start on a new bug to really just do the docu on the
side, although I'm not yet sure which one.

Best regards,
Anna
