Standard policy: Roots get access to systems.

Edit: And this is just transfer of existing active admins of gerrit into Phabricator.

Wrong account comment^

System level access sure. AFAIK "roots" do not get all access to all things in all places. I am not, for instance, an admin in OTRS. Nor why would I be? Another example, I only got admin privs in bugzilla when needed. I'll leave that to @mark.

This discussion is not about @Catrope, but about principles to accept new admins here.

Edit: And this is just transfer of existing active admins of gerrit into Phabricator.

If Gerrit admins need the equivalent superpowers in Phabricator, this can be probably solved with a "Differential Admins" team with the corresponding permissions granted, isn't it? Or is there any permission that Gerrit admins would need that can't be satisfied this way?

PS: the whole #Code-Review is in low priority now, so setting this priority here accordingly.

The equivalent of "gerrit admin" would be admin access to Audit, Diffusion and Differential.

We should just make a group called "Repository Admins" or somesuch that gets admin powers to these applications. Easily done.

this sounds good to me

Something like "Repository-Admins" sounds good to me (note the dash/hyphen). With a nice description what this covers.

Jdforrester-WMF renamed this task from Make @catrope an administrator in Phabricator to Make @catrope a repository administrator in Phabricator.Nov 18 2014, 7:03 PM

I trust Roan with this. Two caveats at the moment that anyone having repo admin access should understand:

  • Repo imports are on a slight hold as we iron out the remaining callsign conventions on-wiki
  • No repo should be locally hosted. We're only mirroring from Gerrit/elsewhere

seems good dude
