Hi,
I asked around while triaging and fixing bugs for the server Team why I can mark status/importance and such but not create bug tasks.
From what I learned:
1. I get the "permission" to triage like edit bug status via my membership in the server team
2. in the past adding bug tasks had caused too many wrong-opened bug tasks
2.1 therefore the permission to add bug tasks was separated from the general permissions
2.2 currently one has to ask one with upload permissions, because that is what the permission to create bug tasks is coupled to today
2.3 usually one asks in ubuntu-bugs if no one else is around with upload rights
I wondered if launchpad could implement the feature to delegate not only triaging permissions but also separately the one for adding bug tasks.
That would allow to delegate this permission to SOME Teams/Developers that are considered to be able to handle adding bug tasks.
While at the same time get some of this pressure off of the people with upload rights - they can do more important stuff. |
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://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-drivers
(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://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-drivers Team having the global permissions - they can do more important stuff. |
