Reopen Issue

= bug description =
Chris Aillon left Red Hat and we need access to mozilla packages.

= bug analysis =
Chris Aillon left Red Hat and we (Fedora Mozilla team) does not have aprove acl rights to mozilla packages (firefox, xulrunner and so). So please provide that ACL rights to us.

= fix recommendation =
As a Fedora Firefox maintainer, I should have "aprove acl" for mozilla packages (and related). List of affected packages:

devhelp epiphany firefox thunderbird xulrunner seamonkey gecko-sharp2

fyi I created the report for infrastructure, because I incorrectly pointed stransky to fesco ticket first (https://fedorahosted.org/fesco/ticket/844). If stransky & co are co-maintainers, they could obtain acl without voting.

Working on it.

I have added/verified approveacls for stransky on the following gecko-maint packages:

epiphany firefox thunderbird xulrunner gecko-sharp2

I did not do devhelp - that has a real live non-caillon owner (mbarnes) - talk to him.

I did not do seamonkey, because he has to apply first for me to approve it.

Q: does stransky have the password to log into FAS as gecko-maint? That could also work around this.

Great, thanks.

That's fine.

Done.

No, we don't have password for the gecko-maint account, can you manage it please?

Thanks!

Checked with admin, pseudo-accounts like gecko-maint have disabled passwords to avoid abuse. We're going to document that for pseudo-accounts like this, at least two maintainers should have approveacls at all time. Can you work that out with your co-maintainers so that a second maintainer also has approveacls?

seamonkey appears taken care of, so I will close this out.
