Seems like a big deal to me…
Having 10k committers is a big deal, even when it is spread across hundreds of projects.

How the open web closes, FOSS edition...
We are running a contest to create a new logo for ASF #SpamAssassin, but because of the steps taken to consolidate wikis for #TheASF and protect the ASF Confluence instance from various malefactors we have yet to figure out how to allow submissions from […]
The new contest page is at cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/SPAMA...
We have not worked out exactly how we're going to let everyone submit, since #TheASF has had to restrict access in face of the insane AI-bots that are making everything on the web […]
Enjoying Community Over Code 2025
Congratulations to the new logo @apache.org!

I will be presenting "Cassandra backups made easy with Medusa and Kubernetes" as part of the @Cassandra track at Community over Code North America 2025; in Minneapolis, MN September 11-14, 2025. Schedule & info: communityovercode.org #CommunityOverCode #TheASF #ApacheCassandra
The people committed to DDoSing the #Apache #SpamAssassin RuleQA server seem to have substantial resources. I’ve blocked a lot of them, but they keep coming, asking about things like the May 7 2017 performance of a single rule in one contributor's stats. Not stuff real people want.

Every time I read anything about governance in #FOSS orgs that's not about #TheASF I am appalled.
Not that we're perfect, but we have managed to avoid being the creature of an insular self-appointed clique. We just elected a brand new board, as we do annually, including Apache OGs & members […]
Apparently it was a broader problem, because no, I was NOT the only one to notice, just the only one to open a Jira ticket.
BECAUSE IF THERE’S NO TICKET THERE'S NO PROBLEM!!!
Clearly ASF Infra needs more staff. See my prior post if you live in Europe.
#SpamAssassin #TheASF #SpamAssassin […]
Dunno if @TheASF@fosstodon.org or @theasf@mastodon.social actually has anyone behind them to post this, but as it is a public job posting and M&P should be posting them to "our social media" today, it can’t hurt for me to do it too.
#TheASF is hiring an infrastructure admin! […]
Is it really possible for svn.apache.org to be down and only the #SpamAssassin utility host and me to notice?
