Time-to-edit issue resolved

Postby wobo » Jan 17th, '12, 16:31

Caused by numerous discussions in the forum and an open bug report (1) the council put this issue on the agenda of his yesterday's meeting (2). The council officially decided to cancel the time limitation for editing a user's own post (in short: you can edit your own post if necessary, no matter how old the post is). The decision was based on a poll between the participating members of the council, the result of this poll was unanimous in favor of this decision.

Important notice:
The admins and moderators of this forum are responsible for taking notice of any misuse of this permission. This may lead to a revocation of said decision.

Congratulations to Mageia leadership for finally making the correct decision. The cumulative loss to the Mageia community is quite literally incalculable.
