Hi Sebb,

Please feel free to update the document as you see fit. CTR.

We all are trying to reduce ambiguity and stress in the process. Any improvements by you are appreciated.

In this case there's no need for consensus. Just reality. ;-)

Hi Christian,

The referenced guide now contains this language:

After root creates the new account, the new committer needs to added to both
the committer-? section and the podling section of the
file:https://svn.apache.org/repos/infra/infrastructure/trunk/subversion/authorization/asf-authorization-template

There is no committer-? section anymore - this is handled by the LDAP
committers group, which AFAIK is only updateable by infra, and should
be handled as part of account creation.

However, there is an incubator LDAP group, which AFAIK needs to
include all incubator committers.
The @incubator group deternines which committers are in the Posix
incubator group.
This group-owns all the incubator websites (apart from the ones
auto-deployed by svn push).

Users are added by running:

modify_unix_group.pl incubator -add=<comma separated list of user ids>

Only PMC chairs (and, for podlings, also Infrastructure volunteers) can grant karma. If needed, please post to the general@/dev@/private@ list of

This is ambiguous - is general@ a podling list, or the Incubator PMC list?

your project asking for someone with sufficient karma to grant access to the
new committer.

Hello,

I wanted to add Luke Blanshard (leadpipe) to

https://svn.apache.org/repos/infra/infrastructure/trunk/subversion/authorization/asf-authorization-template

but I have no access. According to the guide below mentors should be
able to do it but it seems there is a further restriction?

Can anybody with write access update the auth file and add "leadpipe"
to the OGNL podling please?

Thanks!
Christian

Subject: Authorization file not on LDAP?
To: general@incubator.apache.org


Hi,

Luke Blanshard (leadpipe) is only in the incubator group, but he
should be also in the ongl group.

According to:
http://incubator.apache.org/guides/ppmc.html

"After root creates the new account, a Mentor updates the
authorization file to add the new committer to both the committer-?
section and the podling section of the file

https://svn.apache.org/repos/infra/infrastructure/trunk/subversion/authorization/asf-authorization-template "

Isn't this wrong meanwhile? I thought it was LDAP now and I would have
to ask the chair to add Luke to the right group?

Cheers,
Christian
