       MAILARCHIV-10: Switch Joomla News feed over to RSS Watcher

##########################################################################################


Issue Type: Task 
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Issue Information
====================

Priority: Major					Status:      Closed
Resolution:  Done (2017-07-05 10:11:31)
Project: Mailarchives (MAILARCHIV)


Reported By: btasker					
Assigned To: btasker





Time Estimate: 120 minutes
Time Logged:   0 minutes

Issue Description
==================

The Joomla News feed - https://mailarchives.bentasker.co.uk/Mirrors/JoomlaNews/ - was
added in MAILARCHIV-6 (and the security news -
https://mailarchives.bentasker.co.uk/Mirrors/JoomlaSecurityAnnouncements/ - in
MAILARCHIV-5)

Both were added by subscribing to feedburner's auto-emails, unfortunately it seems they're
not a huge amount of use in the context of maintaining an archive.

There's an example here -
https://mailarchives.bentasker.co.uk/Mirrors/JoomlaNews/2017/07-Jul/msg00000.html

Issues are:

- Subject line is just "Joomla! Official News" so multiple mails in one month will get
threaded together
- Links point to feedburner first (want them to point to the news item on joomla.org)

To make sure they're formatted the way they should be, need to look at switching over to
using the RSS monitoring script developed in MAILARCHIV-7

The updated version of the script has been deployed, and I've let it re-send the latest
update to Joomla Announcements so that we get an entry with an appropriate subject line.

Unfortunately, all the links still go via feedburner. It looks like they use internal IDs
so there isn't really a way to unpack the actual URL (and I don't really want to add that
complexity to what should become a general purpose script anyway).

It looks, actually, like feedburner's email subscription method isn't actually that
reliable anyway. There are 3 updates to the Security News (MAILARCHIV-5) feed that haven't
been received (this latest Joomla release is a security fix, so I thought it was odd).

Will get the notifier to send those in too.

OK, they've come in correctly

-
https://mailarchives.bentasker.co.uk/Mirrors/JoomlaSecurityAnnouncements/2017/07-Jul/msg00000.html
-
https://mailarchives.bentasker.co.uk/Mirrors/JoomlaSecurityAnnouncements/2017/07-Jul/msg00001.html
-
https://mailarchives.bentasker.co.uk/Mirrors/JoomlaSecurityAnnouncements/2017/07-Jul/msg00002.html

And the new copy of the latest Joomla News has also come in, with an appropriate subject
line

- https://mailarchive.bentasker.co.uk/Mirrors/JoomlaNews/2017/07-Jul/msg00001.html

It's a pain that the links go via feedburner, but there isn't really much that can
reasonably be done about that (short of requesting them, catching the redirect and
rewriting). It doesn't really affect the security announcements though, as they have all
the information you'd really need in them, and then link to the CVE on Mitre directly
(really the only thing they lack is a link to the commit that fixes it).

Marking this as complete
