New Ubuntu Core Developer - Simon Quigley

2018-08-13 Thread Simon Quigley
Today, I was voted to be an Ubuntu Core Developer by the Ubuntu
Developer Membership Board (a board which I already sit on, so I'm
taking care of myself here). I now have upload rights to the entire
Ubuntu archive.

Thanks everyone!

We will have a discussion on the sprint, but in some experiments I found
why I think this is no (good) solution.

The reason is that the fix is not bound to the place of the issue.
Take the libvirt example which would make some users member of group
libvirt on install.
- The trigger is in installing libvirt package
- But the fix would be in virt-manager, uvtool, ... how many more?
- People might wonder why one works but not the other

The lack of a better solution might make us use it in some places (Those
that matter to users most) still, but I wanted to put words to my concerns
:-)
