A good starting point is to look at the issues marked as "easyfix” [1] 2. I use IRCCloud [2]; they have free and pay plans 3. For the email alias to be active, you need to have signed the CLA and be part of a non-CLA group [3] Hope that helps a bit. 1: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/issues?status=Open&tags=easyfix 2: https://www.irccloud.com 3: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EmailAliases -- kevin _______________________________________________ infrastructure mailing list -- infrastructure@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to infrastructure-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/infrastructure@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
