Poking into this a little bit it seems the actual work needed on Launchpad is <https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/launchpad-registry/+bug/568981> and <https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/launchpad-registry/+bug/568982>, wanting to set gpg and ssh keys via the API? So readonly-oriented structural screenscraping is not a great alternative. I would guess it would be fairly easy to add those APIs by cargo culting others? -- Martin _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
