If so, that will do the job.

I strongly advice *against* using shared accounts as a way to emulate
groups.  Accounts propagate from the Single Sign-On system to the
Service Providers, so that will lead to shared Wiki, gerrit, Redmine,
etc. accounts.

Shared accounts are a nightmare for those who would need to jump in in
case of account compromise or vandalism.  We would need to rotate the
shared credential upon team membership changes, thereby causing burden
to remaining members.  Also which address should one put as primary
contact?  A mailing list?  Password reset tokens would end up in its
archives :-/  IMHO the only valid use case for shared credentials is
ephemeral shared secrets, such as a random jitsi room name or a random
pad name that would automatically be wiped/removed after some time.

Groups of users are a better fit for that workflow, and the only one
that works properly with the rest of our tooling.  Not sure the site
allows granting write access to a group though.  cloph?

[libreoffice-website] Generic user for extensions site

2020-06-17 Thread Daniel Armando Rodriguez

Hi,

While the origin of the question lies in the documentation published on 
the extensions site, surely will be useful for more things, could a 
generic account for spanish documentation team be created to not depend 
on a particular user?
The argument is that if a user uploads a document and later leaves the 
team, it is he who is listed as the document maintainer and not the team 
and therefore only he could update and so on...
