I'm sorry, I don't know if there was an error, or if the option to merge is even available to the team admins.
I see you've been chasing things on #ubuntu-us-wa and #ubuntu-locoteams. With luck someone from the team will comment here. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of loco- directory-dev, which is the registrant for loco-directory. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/719482 Title: Merged/renamed team remains in directory Status in LoCo Directory: Incomplete Bug description: The Ubuntu Washington LoCo has two pages: http://loco.ubuntu.com/teams/washingtonstate http://loco.ubuntu.com/teams/ubuntu-washington However, the washintonstate team no longer exists in Launchpad. This has caused at least one user some confusion: https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+question/145429 I asked about this here: https://answers.launchpad.net/loco-directory/+question/145466 As suggested I followed this up in #ubuntu-locoteams, and had the following conversation: {{{ allenap: Hi, the Ubuntu Washington LoCo has two pages. One of them points to a team that no longer exists, so I wondered if someone could delete it? More details here: https://answers.launchpad.net/loco- directory/+question/145466 daker: allenap, i think czajkowski can do it allenap: daker: Tip-top, thank you. czajkowski: allenap: aye we know czajkowski: nothing we can do about it though, it's a db issue czajkowski: nothing the council can do cjohnston: czajkowski: cant merge it? czajkowski: cjohnston: nope seemingly not cjohnston: does it give an error? czajkowski: cjohnston: I don't know. going by what I was told. czajkowski: cjohnston: ask dholbach cjohnston: ook dholbach: a db issue? dholbach: team admins/owner should be able to merge the teams dholbach: there should be a "merge teams" option there }}} I had also mentioned it on #ubuntu-us-wa and got a response there too, later on (slightly edited): {{{ althara: allenap, it can't be changed. That's why there are two washington teams. One has [the] correct launchpad group. althara: http://loco.ubuntu.com/teams/ubuntu-washington althara: the loco directory can't handle changes like that althara: I asked about it when chuck finally got around to changing our launchpad team name. They basically said it's not designed to update. }}} This bug is confusing users so it seems to be worth supporting merged or renamed teams a little better (just hiding the invalid page would be enough). I'm working this week (I'm a Launchpad dev) on making it easier and more reliable for people to merge teams so this problem is likely to be a more frequent occurrence. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~loco-directory-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~loco-directory-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
