I specifically didn't ask for automation or dictate how it should be done. For example, as a stopgap, a script could notify relevant people to fix the team membership on the GitHub side when Launchpad team membership (or GitHub mappings, when we have that[1]) has changed. Then they could handle it manually. That could be good enough, and that should take all of twenty minutes to write. I'm asking that we do not create second class citizens for the sake of some thoughtfulness and really not very much time. Otherwise the pain is only felt by new team members, so there is never any incentive to fix it for those who can. We all know that this means that it will never get fixed. See today's example at https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/devel-permissions/2025-August/002887.html for an example of how not to do it. I don't want this to become yet another "ping the right people but we're never sure who" situation. [1] OK, that part's tricker, but we can at least do the basic thing. -- ubuntu-devel mailing list ubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel
