As Emmanuele pointed out already, we don't plan to open the service to the
wide public, but any GNOME team can request access to it. Just get in touch
with me for having a pad created with a custom username and password to
access it in the case you want to keep the information on the pad private.

we have been testing the etherpad installation; right now, with just a
couple of pads, we found that there are a couple of reliability issues
— the pad some times just gets stuck, or you get a 503. I think
Andreas is working with Andrea to look into those issues.

we can definitely evaluate the use of the etherpad installation for
other teams; I think it would probably not be good on our
infrastructure and resources if we just had that open for everyone,
though. maybe we could have the access associated to the @gnome.org
account.

AFAIR, Mozilla (for instance) has two etherpad installations: one
slaved to the LDAP for internal usage, and another one public; but
they do have more resources than we do to maintain the latter. :-)

ciao,
 Emmanuele.

I found it at https://etherpad.gnome.org but it doesn't allow me to
edit pads ("You do not have permission to access this pad" after it
created a pad); we have been using various external etherpad for
release team meeting, it would be nice if we could use the gnome.org
one; is it planned to open it?
