Not in general.  I'd be willing to give a few people I know that  
access. That is probably the best short-term solution.


If not, would it be possible to move towards a community-run  
download.zope.org instead, so that we *can* give people access? We  
have a virtual server sitting around at Amaze that would be fine  
for this purpose, for instance.


That would be nice.  It should be a dedicated server, to limit access  
to other facilities and key management is likely to be an issue.


The current situation is not ideal in a number of ways.

In the long run, I'd like to see something like PyPI or out classic  
products mechanism that provided greater control that the current  
system and was less cumbersome that PyPI or our products area.

[Zope3-dev] access to download.zope.org/distribution

2007-04-24 Thread Martijn Faassen

Hi there,

We have various people in the community who produce eggs in large 
quantities (Baiju, Christian Theune). These frequently get uploaded to 
download.zope.org/distribution.


We currently have the problem that removing an egg (if uploaded by 
mistake) is not possible for the community. This is important if we 
upload eggs with the wrong version number, for instance.


In addition, community members also cannot go in and fix permission 
problems, something Christian ran into recently. I think he fixed this 
by uploading a new egg with different permissions, but still that's a 
bother.


Would it be possible to give community members shell access to the 
distribution directory? If not, would it be possible to move towards a 
community-run download.zope.org instead, so that we *can* give people 
access? We have a virtual server sitting around at Amaze that would be 
fine for this purpose, for instance.


Regards,

Martijn
