Certainly willing to discuss it. :) > Here is why: > I created an account in Github, used that account to log into Galaxy and add > my roles.

From Github: "Deleting your user account removes all repositories, forks of private repositories, wikis, issues, pull requests, and pages." So if you delete your account, how are you still using your repositories? I'm guessing that you forked them elsewhere, and are now working with forks of a since-deleted project. Which is how it should work in Galaxy as well, right? > Now i can no longer log into my old Galaxy account and the roles I added are > unmanageable and basically junk. If you really delete the Github account, the roles you added from that account would have been broken anyway because Galaxy pulls them from the originally associated Github repo, which would no longer be there. This is precisely the kind of scenario we're trying to detect and mitigate. > Another problem is that I am forced to use the same username > as my Github username, if I choose to open a new Galaxy account. Is there a reason you object to that? > Any ideas how can I recover my Galaxy account? You should still be able to login to your old Galaxy account and use it until the switchover happens. We're waiting until January to (a) make sure it's the right thing (I think it still is) and (b) give plenty of time to identify and work out corner cases. --g > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Ansible Project" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to [email protected]. > To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. > To view this discussion on the web visit > https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/ansible-project/09c5249c-bb75-4342-b096-4062fb0b3738%40googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/d/optout. -- Greg DeKoenigsberg Ansible Community Guy Find out why SD Times named Ansible their #1 Company to Watch in 2015: http://sdtimes.com/companies-watch-2015/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Project" group.
