Transfer of maintainership for Gentoo Linux in Launchpad

Asked by Ulrich Müller on 2016-08-22

Hello,

The currently listed maintainer for Gentoo Linux in Launchpad, Christian Faulhammer, is listed as inactive. He also retired as Gentoo developer some time ago (see https://bugs.gentoo.org/148577).

I wonder if you could transfer maintainership of https://launchpad.net/gentoo as well as https://launchpad.net/~gentoo-members to me? I am already listed as "administrator" for the latter.

Best regards,
Ulrich Müller

Done now, thanks to sysadmins; sorry for the delay.

To avoid future problems, I'd suggest that you create a suitable team (say, ~gentoo-council), add any relevant Launchpad users to it, and reassign ~gentoo-members and gentoo to that. That way, it will be obvious what external organisation is supposed to own those objects, and anyone on the ~gentoo-council team will be able to perform whatever maintenance actions are required.
