2009-01-13 14:29:13 Fabien Tassin description Anyone could modify the whiteboard of a branch hosted on LP. It is a security issue. Only the owner/team should be able to do that. Worse, the email sent to the owner(s) after the change doe not contain a diff exposing the changes so it's not easy to check what has just been changed.

2009-02-05 03:15:07 Jonathan Lange launchpad-bazaar: statusexplanation The point of whiteboards is that anyone can edit them. If you want to store important information about your branches, your best bet is to edit the description field.

If you want to store important information about your branches, your best bet is to edit the description field. I'm always happy to reconsider decisions :) My questions are: - how are you using the whiteboard such that reliably controlling it becomes a pressing need? - why not use the description? I would also like to know what the policy is for other whiteboards in Launchpad, but that's something I can chase up myself.
