2006-08-31 05:19:08 Matthew Paul Thomas description https://launchpad.net/projects/launchpad-project contains a dummy product, Costato. That Costato was able to join probably means there is something wrong with project permissions. This bug is not about removing Costato, it is about preventing something like that from happening again. Update this description to reflect the exact problem once known. Anyone can register a product in Launchpad, and make it part of someone else's project without approval from the owner(s) of that project. This is wrong. For example, the "Costato" product was able to join the Launchpad project without approval from the Launchpad developers.

This is wrong. For example, the "Costato" project was able to join the Launchpad project group without approval from the Launchpad developers. Anyone can register a project in Launchpad, and make it part of someone else's project group without approval from the owner(s) of that group. This can mislead people about the legitimacy of the project. For example, the "Costato" project was able to join the Launchpad project group without approval from the Launchpad developers. One way to fix this would be to require the project group owner's permission before adding any project. This might be made an option for project groups.
