I want to created i18n-team group under https://src.fedoraproject.org so that I can add this group to i18n packages as a committer. Currently there is no way to check which packages are owned by i18n people which was possible with pkgdb using pseudo user i18n-team.
https://src.fedoraproject.org/user/i18n-team
Looks like the packager exists but just doesn't have the access it used to :(
I am confused, do I need i18n-team as a user or a group? We also need to track packages owned by i18n-team?
There is already an user, if people add it to their packages it should just work.
If you want a group, that's also doable with the same requirement: adding it to the packages of interest.
if i18n-team as a user can be used then no need of i18n-team group to be created but then I don't know what are the advantages or disadvantages of having a user over group or vice-versa.
if there is no difference at all then I am fine with user i18n-team user. Hopefully that user is linked to mailing list i18n-bugs@lists.fedoraproject.org already.
can someone please further explain me above query of pros and cons of having a group vs user?
Well, the difference is what the goal is. If the goal is to get all emails for i18n related packages sent to a mailing list and get a summary of packages, a user would work fine. If the goal is to enable other i18n members to also update a package, you'd need a group.
@pnemade Does that make sense? Is the current user ok for your needs? Or do you need to have a group for managing who can commit to a group of packages?
Yes the current user is ok for our needs. Please close this ticket. Thanks all for your help in this ticket.
great. Let us know if you need anything further.
