Description Steffen Pingel CLA 2010-12-16 07:01:06 EST
In order to maintain meta-data, releng and test bundles that are relevant to all Mylyn sub-projects we would like to add committers to the top-level project and move the existing /cvsroot/tools/org.eclipse.mylyn CVS project to  /cvsroot/mylyn/org.eclipse.mylyn .
Comment 1 Wayne Beaton CLA 2010-12-16 07:32:38 EST
Mik as the sole committer on the project can add committers via committer election (I fixed Bug 332081).
Comment 2 Steffen Pingel CLA 2010-12-16 10:52:16 EST
Thanks. I'll ask Mik to do that.
Comment 3 Steffen Pingel CLA 2010-12-21 19:16:34 EST
Committer nominations have been started.
Comment 4 Steffen Pingel CLA 2010-12-21 19:20:10 EST
See bug 333048 for provisioning CVS.
Comment 5 Steffen Pingel CLA 2011-01-03 18:42:50 EST
According to http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/mylyn-dev/msg01159.html I should now be a committer on the top-level Mylyn project and would expect to be able to edit meta-data through the portal. I don't see the project though and http://eclipse.org/projects/project_summary.php?projectid=mylyn only lists Mik as the committer. Is the provisioning not complete, yet?
Comment 6 Wayne Beaton CLA 2011-01-03 22:12:40 EST
There is more bizarreness.

There are two Mik Kerstens in the system; both are committers on mylyn. One of them, mkersten1, was created on 12-22. Could this be related?
Comment 7 Sharon Corbett CLA 2011-01-04 09:25:06 EST
It's possible that Matt has not fully completed the provisioning....Typically we catch any users with ids ending in(1) and remove that ID merging all access back to the committer's original Unix ID.

I'll turn this over to Matt for investigation.  I suspect it is just a small glitch if the provisioning is complete.

Happy New Year!

You can't edit the Metadata because your 'relation' to the project is as a PMC member.  I've fixed that so you should be good to go.

While this is odd, it's not unexpected.  The 'second' Mik was created by the submissions system.

I'm certainly willing to 'delete' the impostor, but frankly I can't tell which one it is! ;)

Looking at webtools it seems that it is possible to be both, a commiter and PMC member, on a top-level project: http://eclipse.org/projects/project_summary.php?projectid=webtools . Would the same work for Mylyn?

Indeed. You and Mik are both. At least you are now :-)

How would I know which is the real me?  Maybe the older user?

Your evil twin is the one with the goatee.

Ok, I removed Miks alter ego.

Comment 14 Mik Kersten CLA 2011-01-05 19:36:48 EST
Phew!  I was concerned that not even I could tell the difference.  Though I wish we could have put him to some productive work for the project...

It would have been evil productive work.

Looks like we are done here. Thanks everyone!
