#972 Account merge - 'quaid' and 'kwade'
Closed: Fixed None Opened 15 years ago by quaid.

So I really opened a stupid-can when I created two separate accounts to deal with the confusion over 'kwade' and 'quaid'.

Since 'quaid' is my real community, non-corporate account, I think the best thing is to "retire" the 'kwade' account. (Only sad part is losing my very low user id of 38 ;-D )

I suppose I can do most of the work myself:

  • Get 'quaid' added to the same FAS groups as 'kwade'
  • Change any site references
  • Set a redirect at kwade.fedorapeople.org to quaid.fp.o

What else is there? Is there any automagic I could or should do?

My understanding is the 'kwade' account would be disabled in FAS, so no one else would be able to get the username, for example. Anything else I'm not thinking about?


I'm going to go around soon and make sure kwade is 'gone'.

I owe you and Toshio a hot chocolate or other delish bev next time we are in the same airspace; sorry this has turned in to a hassle. At least you know to say "NO!" in the future. :)

K, no files on cvs1 seem to be owned by kwade -

sudo find /srv -uid 102049

Updated the database for ownership of old groups:

update groups set owner_id=100038 where owner_id=102049;

This updated two records, svnols and gituser-guide.

With that, I think the last of what we need to do is done.
