  • Target version set to Tails_2.2

I’ve created the Tails Team on Launchpad: https://launchpad.net/~tails-team
Membership is administered by Tails Developers on Launchpad, no joining without invitation is possible.

This PPA has thus moved from Tails Developers to the team: https://launchpad.net/~tails-team/+archive/ubuntu/tails-installer

Tentatively uploaded a first package there.

Emails will be sent to all members of the team directly when necessary.

People who need to be part of the team need a launchpad account with a corresponding GPG key and sign the Ubuntu Code of Conduct with this key.

Do you want to look at this yourself? And tell me if you need more info.

This part sounds great, yay! (I didn’t check the rest yet.)

According to https://launchpad.net/~tails-team/+members this includes https://launchpad.net/~tails.live, which sounds like we’re going to send undesired email to tails@. I don’t know how often this will happen, but I fear it might be too much. We can try and see. If it’s too much, we could:

  • either make a few of us individually administrators, and remove “Tails Developers” from the team;
  • or replace “Tails Developers” with a dedicated team for administrating this PPA (I think this could be on the sysadmin team’s plate, like most other credential handling we do).

Apparently I didn’t do that, but I’m part of the team. I’m not sure what it implies, likely I can’t upload to the PPA?

there is also an option to simply change the team’s contact address.. :)

OK.

Anything left to do on this ticket, that’s not addressed by sibling tickets?

No i think we’re actually done with this ticket. If you want me to change the contact address, please tell me somewhere else :)
