Given the data provided and without looking real hard, this usually
means someone screwed up the hadoopqa account and locked it out of JIRA.
Ideally, each project would create their own but given the number of projects
that also just copy the hadoop precommit jobs blindly without understanding
what is going on …
I have no idea who actually ‘owns’ the hadoopqa account to unlock it.
Probably Nigel. (I’d frankly be surprised if the Hadoop PMC does). I’m tempted
to create a yetusqa account, give ownership to it to the yetus PMC, and then
put that into (at least) the precommit-hadoop-build job. This way when folks
just copy it they will also use yetusqa and make it easier for us to unlock.
Might also be useful from a stats perspective?
