-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 According to Curtis, currently any logged-in user has the ability to create Packagings, i.e. indicate that a ProductSeries is packaged in a given SourcePackage.
With the new translation sharing between ProductSeries and SourcePackages, Packagings will have significant side-effects. Creating a Packaging will cause translations to be merged, so that they can be shared going forward. Deleting a packaging will cause the translations to be split. Merging and splitting can cause information loss, so it is best to avoid bogus merges. This suggests that we should restrict the ability to create and destroy Packagings. Curtis mentioned that in his experience, Packagings created by members of Project teams were low-quality, compared with Packagings created by Packagers. So perhaps we should restrict Packaging creation to those with upload rights on the relevant source packages. Thoughts?
