There's no such thing as a "full Debian Account Manager" group. Currently, to create accounts, Joerg would basically need full DSA (adm group) and keyring maintainers (keyring group) powers. Regarding the adm group, I'm not sure it is necessary, since asking DSA to create accounts once the keys have been added to the keyring seems to work well (RT#628, which resulted in those accounts creations). The keyring part isn't as easy. The problem is that the keyring isn't maintained collaboratively. jetring has been developed for exactly this use case, but I've heard (discussion on #debian-devel) that some people considered jetring "a mess" (I don't have details about specific problems though). (all of the above is based on my understanding of the situation, but I might be wrong. please correct me :-) -- | Lucas Nussbaum | [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.lucas-nussbaum.net/ | | jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] GPG: 1024D/023B3F4F | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
