I forgot to add: * Manage OpenShift account via web login. Several folks around here (Dave Neary, Garrett Lesage, Jason Brooks) already have their sshkeys loaded in to OpenShift so they can do CLI work. I have now passed them the account details they need so they can do the few things only available through the web interface. In general, those three have the access and knowledge to troubleshoot and fix issues with our MediaWiki + OpenShift instance. - Karsten -- Karsten 'quaid' Wade, Sr. Analyst - Community Growth http://TheOpenSourceWay.org .^\ http://community.redhat.com @quaid (identi.ca/twitter/IRC) \v' gpg: AD0E0C41 signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature ___ Infra mailing list Infra@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/infra

Hi, I'm also be on PTO on at least some of these days, entering exams period for my MBA. So i probably can't take any of these responsibilities for those days.. But, i'll still keep an open eye for errors on linode and will start working on the new jenkins server, at least on all the pre migration stuff.
