1 [[!meta title="SIPB Zephyr Classes"]]
3 Many SIPB members [[use zephyr|doc/zephyr]] to communicate about
4 projects, discuss what's new (or old) in the computing world, and
5 generally keep in touch. Here's a list of some zephyr classes you
6 might be interested in subscribing to.
8 * **<sipb,\*,\*>** — The archetypal zephyr class for SIPB
9 members. Features general discussion about the SIPB,
10 from brainstorming about projects to random bits of humor. It's
11 considered polite to always use an instance when sending to **-c
12 sipb**. *High traffic.*
14 * **<sipb-door,\*,\*>** — Receives a zephyr whenever SIPB's office door opens or closes. Great way to keep track of whether the [[office]] is open or not.
16 * **<sipb-auto,\*,\*>** — *High traffic.* Receives a variety of automatically generated zephyrs, including...
17 * **<sipb-auto,sipbmp3,\*>** — Activity on [sipbmp3](https://sipb.mit.edu/sipbmp3/). *Usually high traffic.*
18 * **<sipb-auto,sipb-door,\*>** — See **<sipb-door,\*,\*>** above.
19 * **<sipb-auto,sipb-www,\*>** — Commit logs when changes are pushed to this website.
20 * **<sipb-auto,backups,\*>** — Log messages from automated backups of the SIPB AFS cell.
21 * **<sipb-auto,nagios.stuff.HTTP,\*>** — Alerts when SIPB's [stuff.mit.edu](https://stuff.mit.edu) server goes down.
23 ## Classes for SIPB Projects
25 In general, you should only sub to these classes *if and only if*
26 you're interested in helping with a specific project.
28 * **<hyades,\*,\*>** — If you're interested in getting involved with Hyades, subscribe here to see Hyades development happens in real time. *High traffic.*
30 * **<scripts,\*,\*>** — If you're interested in getting involved
31 with [Scripts](https://scripts.mit.edu/), subscribe here to see what
32 the Scripts team does behind the scenes. *High traffic.*
34 * **<barnowl,\*,\*>** — Discussion of [BarnOwl](https://barnowl.mit.edu/), a zephyr client written and maintained by SIPB members.
36 * **<debathena,\*,\*>** — Discussion of [Debathena](https://debathena.mit.edu/), a project designed to bring the functionality of Athena to your Debian or Ubuntu system. Debathena is also the basis of the next official version of Athena. *High traffic.*
38 * **<dodona-discuss,\*,\*>** — Discussing the development and coding of [Dodona](http://dodona.scripts.mit.edu), a SIPB zephyrbot.
39 * **<dodona,\*,\*>** — The "official" class for Dodona to run and give advice on. Currently *low traffic*, as Dodona rarely runs.
40 * **<dodona-test,\*,\*>** — Class for trial runs of Dodona. *High traffic*.
42 * **<clockworks,\*,\*>** — Discussion of [[clockworks|projects/clockworks]].
44 * **<mitex,\*,\*>** — Discussion of the development of [mitex](http://mitex.mit.edu). Note that this class receives a zephyr with each commit made.
46 ## Other Useful Classes
48 These are not actually SIPB-related classes, although many people
49 affiliated with SIPB and/or IS&T listen to them. You should not send
50 zephyrs to any of these classes unless you have a good reason.
52 * **<consult,\*,\*>** -
54 * **<filsrv,\*,\*>** — Announcements of filesystem outages
56 * **<3down,\*,\*>** — Recieves zephyrs about MIT service status (see also [3down website](https://3down.mit.edu/))
