[jira] [Reopened] (INFRA-3867) Enhancements to Self-Serve

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-3867?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Sebb reopened INFRA-3867:
-------------------------


What about the e-mail addresses in members.txt?

Does it make sense for members.txt to have another set of e-mail aliases?

Are any e-mail aliases in members.txt not intended for publication to non-members, i.e. should not appear in the exported MailAlias.txt?

As it stands now, moderators still need to check both MailAlias.txt and members.txt.

Aliases that are in members.txt and are already in LDAP could presumably be removed from members.txt, as that is just duplication.

But what to do about aliases which are only in members.txt?
I think this question may need to be asked on members@

> At present, committers and members have several places where e-mail addresses need to be maintained.
> - Selfserve - email forwarding
> - MailAlias.txt - e-mail aliases
> - members.txt - e-mail aliases
> It is tedious keeping these in step, and can be hard for mail moderators to access the aliases (see separate Jira for moderation enhancement)
> The suggestion is:
> - add field for e-mail alias to LDAP. The source for this is MailAlias.txt, which is committer-private. LDAP could be read-only for all but the owner. Perhaps allow updates by PMC chairs?
> - might as well add the home URL from urls.txt. This is public, as it is published on people.apache.org
> LATER
> - add missing entries from members.txt if/when that is converted to LDAP
