That is a curious statement, considering that: - committers are not automatically subscribed to ooo-private. - committers are not automatically list moderators. They need to request it. - committers are not automatically blog editors. They need to request it. - committers are not automatically wiki editors or admins. They need to request it. - committers are not automatically forum editors or admins. They need to request it. So far as I can tell, the only thing that happens automatically for committers is SVN access. And even that is not really automatic. Given the above, I had no expectations that Bugzilla access for committers would happen without request. Do you have a reason to be optimistic in this case? And are you suggesting we wait for this to happen? Or would it make more sense to get a few volunteers, per my original note, and go forward with that for now? -Rob > The PPMC should decide what the normal set of privileges should be for the > general community as well. > > Maybe as another thread this will noticed. > > I am really glad I rejected using BZ to discuss the website a few months ago > since no privileges with the AOO BZ have been assigned to anyone who wasn't > with the former project yet former members who have not continued with this > project still have privileges. > > This is a huge issue and ought to be addressed this week. > > Regards, > Dave > >> >> Regards, >> Andrea. >
