Right. The problem is that that's actually not true in this circumstance, right? An account and person record no longer equate to "uses Launchpad" -- the Account may exist because the person is an Ubuntu One user, and the Person may exist because they have translated something, but even though they both exist there is no indication they actually have decided to "use Launchpad". So what exactly does "uses Launchpad" mean. I think it means the person visited a +login page somewhere and tried to log in using an email associated with an existing Account created on U1 or ShipIt or b) said "not registered yet" with an email associated with an existing Account created on U1 or ShipIt (I'm not sure this actually works right now, but I am pretty sure it once did). The moment the password is entered (and a token validated for the second case) for the first time the DB needs to be updated, and I think the right thing to do there is to set Person.account_activated = True or something like that. -- Christian Robottom Reis | [+55 16] 3376 0125 | http://launchpad.net/~kiko | [+55 16] 9112 6430 | http://async.com.br/~kiko _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
