Okaty, so as a first step, let's fix this. I believe that this is just a case
of changing the permission set, and possibly the list of users with a given
permissions.
I believe a while back, the offer was made to do this, providing that we had
some agreement on what those permission sets should be.
So, I'm proposing the following sets:
guest:
As present, can view the openafs-bugs queue, but can't update them
commenter:
Can do anything to a bug, but can't delete it, or merge it with another
bug, (these are potentially irreversible steps in RT)
developer:
Can do anything to a bug
And then the existing set of permissions for the security queue. All active
accounts would be by default in the 'commentor' state. Anyone who meets my
earlier criteria for +2 access to gerrit would also be in the developer set.
And then we solve the issue of how to do automatic signup as a separate step.
Any comments?
Cheers,
Simon.
