18:21:02 pingou: yes, the user can email the admins, who can decode the (encrypted) answer to verify it is indeed the owner of the account 18:21:28 for example if he loses access to his original email account (employee switch, etc) 18:21:29 puiterwijk: sweet 18:21:29 another way of getting your account back if you don't control the email it's tied to 18:21:54 I saw an email in the mailing list about s3, *just a reminder* 18:22:03 are we going to shout from the rooftops "hey, go put your question in 18:22:06 ??

18:29:40 nirik: is there anything on the agenda for "get this done before the freeze in less than a week" 18:30:07 I think threebean is hoping to land some fedmesg stuff. 18:30:24 lmacken: are you going to try and get bodh1 update out before freeze? 18:30:46 nirik: yeah, hopefully 18:30:54 ok. 18:31:15 I don't think there's much else we wanted to land before freeze... 18:31:19 at least that I can think of 18:31:34 alright 18:32:24 #topic Open Floor 18:32:32 anything for open floor?

18:35:21 we have a daily report that goes out with avcs 18:35:22 nirik: great! thanks! 18:35:37 avcs? 18:35:50 if we can reduce those or see hosts that don't have any but aren't enforcing, we can set them to enforcing. 18:36:25 forget what it stands for... but a denial. 18:36:32 Or would be a denial if it was enforcing. 18:36:50 permissive? 18:37:03 yeah, many of our hosts are in permissive mode... some are enforcing. 18:37:27 yeah, I can help with that a lot I think 18:37:32 excellent. 18:37:51 ok, anything else, or shall we call it a meeting?
