Bug Description
Hi,
I asked around while triaging and fixing bugs for the server Team why I can mark status/importance and such but not create target series.
From what I learned:
1. I get the "permission" to triage like edit bug status via my membership in the ubuntu-server team
2. in the past allowing targeting series for almost everyone had caused too many wrong bugs
2.1 therefore the permission to target a series was separated from the general permissions to triage
2.2 currently one has to ask another privileged launchpad user with permissions to target bugs to series - that are members of https:/
(process-wise one has to "nominate for series" before, but that is optional)
2.3 usually one asks in ubuntu-bugs if no one else is around with the proper permissions
I wondered if launchpad we could also delegate permission to target bugs just to a certain subset of packages to Teams/Developers that are considered to be able to handle adding bug tasks.
This could get some pressure off of the people within the https:/
