Here's what I had in mind when I suggested we manage our ASFBigtop via TweetDeck. Please let me know if I can go ahead and move the account into TweetDeck as per the process described bellow.
If we all agree -- you won't be able to login as ASFBigtop directly. The credentials will be mine until the question at the very bottom of this email gets answered. Thanks, Roman. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Roman Shaposhnik <[email protected]> Date: Sun, Mar 29, 2015 at 6:28 PM Subject: ASFIncubator now managed via TweetDeck To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> Hi! over the weekend I've experimented with managing ASFIncubator via TweetDeck and I really like the results. In fact, I like them so much that I am going to suggest we manage the rest of our official ASFxxx accounts in the following way: 0. The account itself is NOT expected to be used aside from initial setup and a case where all the admins (see bellow) self destruct. 1. As part of the initial setup for the account on TweetDeck we define its first admin and the rest gets boostrapped by that person. 2. Any admin can add two types of accounts under ASFxxx: * collaborators (folks who can tweet) * admins (folks who can tweet AND manage group) Note that all these actions are performed from under the regular user accounts -- there's no need to login into ASFxxx. For example, at this point Ted and I are admins for the ASFIncubator. If you want to be able to Tweet as ASFIncubator please send either one of us your Twitter ID. The above makes a really nice, security-conscious scheme that I would love to champion among various PMCs and suggest that we document it as part of our social media guidelines. The only open question in my mind is who (and by extension what email address) should the master ASFxxx account be associated with. I see two alternatives here: * ASF Infra team collectively owns it * Whoever controls @TheASF owns it Which one do you guys think works best? Thanks, Roman.
