Mailing List discussions

Policy decisions surrounding HPR are taken by the community as a whole. This discussion takes place on the Mail List which is open to all HPR listeners and contributors. The discussions are open and available on the HPR server under Mailman.

The threaded discussions this month can be found here:

Reserving Shows

Due to the recent spate of future show reservations a change of text is required. The proposed change is from:

All reservations need to be approved. In the case where you wish to reserve a particular slot but do not have the media recorded, you will need to get the reservation approved in advance by the HPR Mailing List.

To

All reservations need to be approved. Any host can reserve any slot one year in advance by recording their show and posting it on the desired day as normal. In exceptional circumstances it possible to make a reservation, but only if there was no way to have recorded the show in time, and with approval in advance by the HPR Mailing List.

This is intended only for exceptional circumstances such as a scheduled interview where we would like the audio to be released as soon after as possible, or to cover an important topical situation

Upload Errors

Some uploaders are reporting 403 permission denied. This is because one of the protection scripts is checking for strange activity. We narrowed this down to ' (quote) in file names, or | (pipes) in the show notes.

New series

Two new series have been added to the HPR system:

  • Health and Healthcare (13 episodes)
  • Sound Scapes (6 episodes)

Comment form 'justification'

The 'What does HPR mean to you?' field on the comment form is required when commenting on older shows. As an anti-spam measure this field needs to completed with text which is between 20 and 200 characters in length.
