NOTICE: 3.1.0 mass-checks heads up
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Hi all --
we're going to be starting the mass-checks for 3.1.0 RSN. These will be
used to generate an up-to-date score set for that release.
If you have a hand-classified set of mail corpora [1], and are able and
willing to run mass-check over them [2] and submit the results via rsync,
that would be very helpful! (BTW things are simpler this time around; we
should be able to do it with just one mass-check run.)
[1]: http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/HandClassifiedCorpora
[2]: http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/MassCheck
The current plan is to start the mass-checks this coming Wednesday (or
thereabouts). See http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/Release310Schedule
.
It might be worthwhile getting your corpora in shape, running a test
mass-check, and taking a look at the high and low-scoring messages to spot
any FPs or FNs you may have missed. Also, request an rsync account
if you haven't already got one.

It's documented in the masses/CORPUS_SUBMIT file. I'll set you up with
an account and send you the username/password separately.

It's definitely good to have if you're interested in submitting rules,
code, etc. It's generally not necessary for the score generation
information.

I can help do masschecks for 3.1.0 if needed. I have a good corpus of
ham and spam and add daily to it. All hand checked.
Whom do I request an account from? Or is there a form?
I've also been going to send in my CLA but have not gotten one in yet,
can do that too if required.
Thanks,

Yes, they're separate accounts. We always just copy the one file to
the other file when we're ready to do the rescore run and add new accounts as
necessary.

Oh. Perhaps I was too vague. Can I have an account? :)

I should be spitting nightlies out shortly now I've cleaned the crud out
of my corpus at last.

FYI:
I copied over the nightly accounts to the submission account list and setup
the new submit directory to handle the results. So rsync is ready.
No one has asked for an account yet, btw.
Oh, and we ought to clean out the nightly account list post 3.1.
Right now we're only seeing nightly results from 5 or 6 people, but
there are 27 accounts.
