See https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Volunteer_NDA for the process :)

technical permission being requested here would be ldap/nda group membership

So if this is about the WMF-NDA group in Phabricator, I don't see @TheDJ yet listed in the L2 signatures under https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/legalpad/signatures/2/ ...

If this is (also?) about LDAP, https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/project/profile/974/ says that it needs to be tagged as LDAP-Access-Requests

Is the list at https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Volunteer_NDA#Get_support considered ordered? The last few bullets suggest that it is, but your comment seems to suggest otherwise.

I guess there's no way to remove the need for this bureaucracy in order to access (all of?) logstash and graphite? Ideally these systems would be as public and open as possible.

A big +1 from me for @TheDJ getting access to anything he needs for MediaWiki/Wikimedia development.

logstash contains private information.

+1 from me for approving @TheDJ NDA access.

Regarding LDAP, afaik that should not be part of the standard Volunteer NDA process. Rather, LDAP is one of several things that have NDA as a prerequisite. In this case it'll make sense indeed for @TheDJ to request LDAP nda membership shortly after his NDA is approved.

Also +1 from me for approving @TheDJ NDA access.

@TheDJ: Could you sign L2 please?

I have signed L2 now. Sorry, I did not have much time to keep an eye on WP/MW affairs lately, so it went a bit under the radar.

P.S. Part of why I missed that, was because this didn't link to a document that would actually open for me...

Approved
