Nomination of Addshore for Toolforge admin role
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

I would like to nominate @Addshore for admin (root) rights in the Toolforge project. Adam is a long time Toolforge user and trusted community member. He already has the prerequisite NDA coverage (WMDE staff/contractor).

He has specifically volunteered to help improve the Kubernetes environment, but I'm pretty certain that he will help us make many other things more awesome as well.

Event Timeline

Steps from https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Portal:Toolforge/Admin#What_makes_a_root:

  • Project administrator: This allows a user to add and delete other users from the Toolforge project.
  • sudo policy "roots": This allows a user to use sudo to become root on Toolforge instances.
  • 'admin' tool maintainer: This allows a user to log into infrastructure instances and perform tasks as the admin tool.
  • Gerrit groups "labs-toollabs" and "toollabs-trusted": These allow a user to +2 changes in repositories exclusive to Toolforge.

I did not grant @Addshore into the labs-toollabs gerrit group because I myself am not in the group! Looks like help from @Andrew is needed to expand the list of folks there or we should drop it from the list.

Let's get rid of that group. (T159051: Document and update Gerrit groups for repositories related to Toolforge)

bd808 claimed this task.

Will follow up on T159051.
