My apologies for not making yesterday's meeting. I had to take Tuesday and Wednesday off at short notice to attend a family funeral, and forgot to send meeting apologies in advance.
Regarding https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/devel-permissions/2010-October/000109.html, I'm not sure how we might do this. Absent significant changes in Launchpad, it would be possible to ask the DMB to vote on a developer having access to upload all "their" Debian packages in Ubuntu, and if that were approved then the exact set of archive permissions associated with that developer could be changed as an operational matter without a vote as long as the changes were in line with what the DMB had approved. I would expect that such a request to the DMB would prompt questions about package ownership, what would happen should one of Sylvestre's packages be in main and/or subject to dispute, how this interacts with the fact that any Debian developer can take over any package without any particular technical barriers and only social barriers, etc. It might be easiest for Sylvestre to simply apply for MOTU and/or core-dev. -- Colin Watson [[email protected]] -- technical-board mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/technical-board
