Grant access to Toolforge's pywikibot tool to current Pywikibot developer base
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

To solve T173498, T192732 and T192733 there are some major things needed from pywikibot tool on Toolforge, e.g. credentials to Pywikibot-test user on WM projects. The access to the tool only have inactive and almost inaccessible former Pywikibot developers. Therefore I politely request tool access for at least @Xqt and @Dalba, currently the most active pywikibot developers; and not necessary but possibly also for me (@Dvorapa), @Framawiki and @zhuyifei1999 to resolve the issues.

Event Timeline

If anyone else from current Pywikibot team would like to be part of it for some reason (@Framawiki, @zhuyifei1999, @matej_suchanek), please just edit the task description. Also it would be cool to notify mailing list as well.

to which only inactive and almost inaccessible former Pywikibot developers have an access

And me :) except I can't modify the access list (tool maintainer list) :(

If you urgently need some file, I can create a private paste with the contents.

@zhuyifei1999 To solve T173498 the passwd file should contain the credentials needed. I can only view the files and folders structure as anyone on Toolforge. You can reach me on dvorapa~seznam~cz e-mail address, but I'm not sure if this method would not cause you some trouble.

Actually, wait... this would be handled under abandoned tool policy in normal circumstances. I guess better for me to not interfere and leave it to the tool maintainers, for less controversy.

Abandoned tool policy needs to make the tool's source available. But we store credentials and other useful build stuff here... Hopefully one of the current maintainers could help

I would also like to be part of the maintainers of pywikibot tool, if possible. Email sent to list. A few tasks need to be done, I see at least T192733 and T192732.

Current maintainers of this tool are @Ladsgroup, @jayvdb, @Legoktm, @valhallasw, @Multichill and @russblau.

I added @Dvorapa as maintainer of the tool. I couldn't find LDAP username of Framawiki. who else wants the access?
