This email is going to a rather wide audience so my apologies if it isn't relevant to you.
If you don't use android.git.linaro.org or review.android.git.linaro.org, you can ignore the rest of this email. If you use either of these servers, please note that there will be planned maintenance between 2pm and 5pm, GMT+1, this Friday, 17th May. We are moving the server from Canonical to Amazon EC2. If you currently use review.android.git.linaro.org and sign in on it, please read the following information VERY CAREFULLY! At the moment, users are authenticated via OpenID with Launchpad. We are changing that to use OpenID with the Linaro Login service. If you don't know if you have a Linaro Login account, or you want to check that it is going to work properly: * Go to https://login.linaro.org:8443/openidserver. * If you are asked to log in, please enter your EMAIL ADDRESS and your Linaro Login password. If you don't know what your Linaro Login password is, or you cannot successfully log in, please contact me as soon as possible! * The web page should now display a URL of the format https://login.linaro.org:8443/openidserver/users/<your email address>. This is your OpenID URL and means you will be ready to follow the link identity instructions below. After the maintenance has been completed, you will need to take the following steps ONCE: 1. Go to https://login.linaro.org:8443/openidserver. If you are asked to log in, please enter your EMAIL ADDRESS and your Linaro Login password. 2. The web page should now display a URL of the format https://login.linaro.org:8443/openidserver/users/<your email address>. Make a note of that, please. 3. Go to http://review.android.git.linaro.org/. Sign in with your Launchpad ID. 4. When you have signed in, click on the Settings link in the top right corner of the web page. 5. Click on the Identities link on the left hand side of the web page. 6. Click on Link Another Identity. 7. Enter the URL you noted from step 2 and click on Link Identity. 8. If your web browser session from step 2 has expired, you will be asked to log in again - enter the same information you entered at step 1. 9. If your web browser session has not expired, or once you have logged in, you will see a web page with the title "OpenID Verification". On the right hand side, click on Allow Always. You should now be back at the Settings page. If you want to check that you can now sign in with your Linaro Login credentials, click on Sign Out in the corner of the Gerrit window, click Sign In and this time use the URL from step 2 rather than your Launchpad URL. You should be logged straight in if you have not closed any web browser windows. PLEASE NOTE: we will be supporting both Launchpad and Linaro Login OpenID authentication until the *end of May*. After that time, we will be switching over to just Linaro Login and you will no longer have to enter the OpenID URL - Gerrit will authenticate you directly with Linaro Login. Please do NOT attempt the above instructions until after the maintenance has been completed. I am providing the information now so that (a) you have it ready for use and (b) I can help anyone out if they do not know their Linaro Login details. If you have any questions, please email me. Thank you.
