TJC hit by a massive spam attack - maemo.org

Looks like TJC was hit by massive spam attack overnight, I woke up to pages and pages of random chinese garbage!

Hopefully Jolla can clean this up without wasting too many resources to fix the problem.

Someone is unhappy with the slowness of jolla. November and no invites.

Translated. It says: "where is the invites. Where is the tablet. Ship it or refund."

My language skill is not perfect so it could be slightly incorrect.

Maybe there is a 0,05% chance we will rejoice later when the Jolla blog will announce in English the homecoming of a major Chinese mobile manufacturer to Jolla SF OS?

Ok, as I understand it, Jolla has publicly stated that the next wave of invites will only start in November. Given that it has been November for just a little over 24 hours now, and that Jolla itself has only started the workweek mere minutes ago, I think you'd have to say whoever is complaining is kind of jumping the gun here.

But yeah, I do hope that they'll come up with at least a few tablets...

Where did you get this from? The ones I've seen just seem to be spam about fake diplomas from universities.

Dave's last sentence should be interpreted as understatement, particularly the part about slightly incorrect.

Yeah, I was trying to subtly indicate that, because I got the feeling some were believing him.
