I found a few more IPs making requests using the shady Chrome 44 user agent in the last few days so I will add them to the block list too:
18.207.136.176
185.189.36.248
50.118.223.78
52.70.76.123
3.236.10.11
Looking at the Solr statistics for 2022-04
52.191.137.59 is Microsoft, but they are using a normal user agent and making tens of thousands of requests
64.39.98.62 is owned by Qualys, and all their requests are probing for /etc/passwd etc
185.192.69.15 is in the Netherlands and is using a normal user agent, but making excessive automated HTTP requests to paths forbidden in robots.txt
157.55.39.159 is owned by Microsoft and identifies as bingbot so I don&rsquo;t know why its requests were logged in Solr
52.233.67.176 is owned by Microsoft and uses a normal user agent, but making excessive automated HTTP requests
157.55.39.144 is owned by Microsoft and uses a normal user agent, but making excessive automated HTTP requests
207.46.13.177 is owned by Microsoft and identifies as bingbot so I don&rsquo;t know why its requests were logged in Solr
If I query Solr for time:2022-04* AND dns:*msnbot* AND dns:*.msn.com. I see a handful of IPs that made 41,000 requests
I purged 93,974 hits from these IPs using my check-spider-ip-hits.sh script

<li>Update PostgreSQL JDBC driver to 42.3.5 in the Ansible infrastructure playbooks and deploy on DSpace Test</li>
<li>Peter asked me how many items we add to CGSpace every year
<ul>
<li>I wrote a SQL query to check the number of items grouped by their accession dates since 2009:</li>

<li>Note that I had an issue with casting <code>text_value</code> to date because one item had an accession date of <code>2016</code> instead of <code>2016-09-29T20:14:47Z</code>
<ul>
<li>Once I fixed that PostgreSQL was able to <a href="https://www.postgresql.org/docs/12/functions-datetime.html#FUNCTIONS-DATETIME-EXTRACT">extract() the year</a></li>
<li>There were some other methods I tried that worked also, for example <code>TO_DATE()</code>:</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<div class="highlight"><pre tabindex="0" style="color:#f8f8f2;background-color:#272822;-moz-tab-size:4;-o-tab-size:4;tab-size:4;"><code class="language-console" data-lang="console"><span style="display:flex;"><span>localhost/dspacetest= ☘ SELECT EXTRACT(year from TO_DATE(text_value, &#39;YYYY-MM-DD&#34;T&#34;HH24:MI:SS&#34;Z&#34;&#39;)) AS YYYY, COUNT(*) FROM metadatavalue WHERE metadata_field_id=11 GROUP BY YYYY ORDER BY YYYY DESC LIMIT 14;
</span></span></code></pre></div><ul>
<li>But it seems PostgreSQL is smart enough to recognize date formatting in strings automatically when we cast so we don&rsquo;t need to convert to date first</li>
<li>Another thing I noticed is that a few hundred items have accession dates from decades ago, perhaps this is due to importing items from the CGIAR Library?</li>
<li>I spent some time merging a few pull requests for DSpace 6.4 and porting one to <code>main</code> for DSpace 7.x</li>
<li>I also submitted a <a href="https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/pull/8288">pull request to migrate Mirage 2&rsquo;s build from bower and compass to yarn and node-sass</a></li>

<ul>
<li>Submit an updated <a href="https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/pull/8292">pull request to migrate Mirage 2&rsquo;s build from bower and compass to npm and node-sass</a>
<ul>
<li>This one is better than the previous one because it uses npm directly, which comes with the Node.js distribution, rather than requiring the user to install yarn</li>
<li>I also updated a bunch of grunt build deps</li>
</ul>

<ul>
<li>CGSpace meeting with Abenet and Peter
<ul>
<li>We discussed the future of CGSpace and DSpace in general in the new One CGIAR</li>
<li>We discussed how to prepare for bringing in content from the Initiatives, whether we need new metadata fields to support people from IFPRI etc</li>
<li>We discussed the need for good quality Drupal and WordPress modules so sites can harvest content from the repository</li>
<li>Peter asked me to send him a list of investors/funders/donors so he can clean it up, but also to try to align it with RoR and evntually do something like we do with country codes, adding the RoR IDs and potentially showing the badge on item views</li>
<li>We also discussed removing some Mirage 2 themes for old programs and CRPs that don&rsquo;t have custom branding, ie only Google Analytics</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Export a list of donors for Peter to clean up:</li>
</ul>

</span></span><span style="display:flex;"><span>COPY 1184
</span></span></code></pre></div><ul>
<li>Then I created a CSV from our <code>cg-creator-identifier.xml</code> controlled vocabulary and ran it against our database with <code>add-orcid-identifiers-csv.py</code> to see if any author names by chance matched that are missing ORCIDs in CGSpace</li>
</ul>

<li>So it&rsquo;s only eighty-five, but better than nothing&hellip;</li>
<li>I removed the custom Mirage 2 themes for some old projects:
<ul>
<li>AgriFood</li>
<li>AVCD</li>
<li>LIVES</li>
<li>FeedTheFuture</li>
<li>DrylandSystems</li>
<li>TechnicalConsortium</li>
<li>EADD</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>That should knock off a few minutes of the maven build time!</li>
<li>I generated a report from the AReS nginx logs on linode18:</li>
