pleia2so launchpad still has its own single sign on, it doesn't use USSO00:59
pleia2you need both, separate accounts to contribute to both01:00
pleia2(made a couple edits to the page reflecting this)01:05
knomereally?01:07
knomethat's a bit weird.01:08
knomeisn't launchpad supposed to be under the SSO (already)?01:09
knome both login.launchpad.net and login.ubuntu.com show me the "last authenticated" information01:10
pleia2the same?01:11
knomeyes, the same01:11
knomethanks for the voice of sanity01:11
pleia2Launchpad account management is provided by the Ubuntu Single Sign On service01:11
pleia2aha01:11
pleia2but can you use your ubuntu SSO to log into launchpad?01:12
knomewell,01:12
knomei used to only have a launchpad account01:12
knomethen it was converted into a ubuntu SSO account01:12
knomeso i don't exactly know...01:12
pleia2mine's still a launchpad.net account, I use it for openstack stuff01:12
knomebut i would guess yes, because existing users were converted as well01:12
knomehow do you know that?01:13
pleia2well I guess I don't if it's all under the hood stuff01:13
knomeheh01:13
knomewell i mean01:13
knomehow do you determine if it's still a launchpad account?01:13
pleia2I use all the same api calls and stuff when authenticating01:13
knomemmh, but i would imagine that's all openid stuff01:14
belkinsaIt's OpenID.01:14
belkinsaSo, LP = Ubuntu One...or to me.01:14
knomehttps://launchpad.net/~knome still says my openid login is https://launchpad.net/~knome01:14
belkinsaDitto but for belkinsa01:15
pleia2anyway, this is why I suggested testing things so we could clarify the docs, I'm still confused :)01:15
knomei'm wondering if a completely new ubuntu SSO user would have to confirm they actually want a launchpad account created01:15
pleia2knome: me too01:15
knomethat's the only thing i'm not sure about01:15
belkinsaI could test that.01:15
knomeonce that's done (if it's needed), the ubuntu SSO/LP accounts should be exactly the same thing01:16
knomebelkinsa, if you please could :)01:16
belkinsaOn it.01:16
* knome is interested as well01:16
pleia2in my blog post about testing I said you needed accounts on both, so :)01:16
pleia2this also caused confusion to a xubuntu tester01:17
belkinsaLook what I got when I updated my new account: "您的账户详情已被成功更新"01:18
belkinsaWhich is, "Your account details have been successfully updated".01:18
belkinsaO.o01:18
knomeupdated? :)01:18
belkinsaThe new one.  I needed to change my username.01:19
knomepleia2, is there a way to remove ubuntu SSO accounts?01:19
pleia2no idea01:19
belkinsaIt seems that you only need to "update" your details on LP once you get an Ubuntu One account, just like when you change e-mails.01:20
pleia2but what if you don't have a LP account? the question is whether ubuntu SSO creates one01:20
pleia2or if you need to sign up separately01:20
belkinsaAh, so the other way?  I can test that also.01:21
pleia2both ways really, I've always told people they needed both, but apparently I have no idea01:21
belkinsaThink the name "Single Log On" implies that you can log on to any of the Ubuntu sites that allow it.01:23
belkinsaI was able to access the comments system of the LoCo Council's blog and comment on their last post.01:23
pleia2sure, but launchpad used to run it's own openid service, so it's special01:23
knomeyeah, you need to enable a launchpad account01:24
belkinsaYup, as I guessed.  LP account creates a Ubuntu One account.01:24
knomei'm not sure if it's happening the other way.01:25
belkinsa"Launchpad:All content published under your launchpad user will remain public unless you deactivate your launchpad account first. "  when you delete the account.01:25
pleia2so should we be telling people to sign up for both? or just lp?01:25
belkinsaOther places: 'Landscape, Ubuntu wiki sites, Ubuntu Forum and AskUbuntu accounts won't be deleted, but you will lose access to those too. You should contact each team if you want to make sure each of those are eliminated too. "01:25
knomei did the registration process, and i'm not sure at which point the launchpad account was created.01:25
belkinsaLP = Ubuntu One.01:25
belkinsaYou just need to confirm your details on LP.01:26
pleia2so you create an ubuntu SSO account, then go to LP and log in with the same username and password as USSO?01:26
belkinsaYes.01:27
pleia2gotcha01:27
belkinsaSingle sign-on has it's meaning for all Ubuntu services.01:27
pleia2it's just confusing because it didn't exist a couple years ago, we used to use LP to log into everything, then there was LP and USSO, now they've merged I guess, but maintain their own URLs and stuff01:28
belkinsaI think they have merged but as you said maintain their URLs.01:28
pleia2and it's not really obvious that you can log into LP with your Ubuntu SSO info01:28
knomeit's not a complete merge.01:28
belkinsaLook at this list: http://i.imgur.com/tlTKZeY.png LP is on that.01:28
pleia2knome: yeah, it's a bit goofy :)01:29
knomeso basically,01:29
knomeonce you've set up Ubuntu SSO,01:29
knomeyou go login with your credentials in launchpad01:29
belkinsaYes.01:29
knomeand it will ask you to "update your detaisl"01:29
belkinsaYup.01:29
knomewhen you do that, a ~launchpad-user will be created01:30
knomebut not before that01:30
belkinsaYes.01:30
pleia2you go login with your SSO credentials in launchpad01:30
pleia2(just to be clear)01:30
knomeso signing up for USSO does *not* create a launchpad user.01:30
belkinsaYes, pleia2 has it01:30
knomepleia2, yep.01:30
knomehowever,01:30
knomeas i assume,01:30
belkinsaMore like the profile for LP01:30
knomecreating a launchpad account01:30
belkinsaIf that made any sense.01:30
knomewill create a ubuntu SSO account01:30
knomepleia2, you know gravatar?01:31
pleia2so I guess it sounds easier if we just tell people to sign up for LP01:31
pleia2knome: yeah01:31
belkinsapleia2, that works.01:31
pleia2(like we did tell people before I started this mess)01:31
knomepleia2, think it this way: USSO is gravatar, launchpad is just a site that uses that feature01:31
knome(but allows much more features with the same credentials)01:31
pleia2yeah01:31
belkinsaGravatar is like everywhere.01:31
knomebelkinsa, that was just an analogy ;)01:32
belkinsaAh, duh...01:32
* belkinsa facepalms01:32
knomeand by the way01:32
knometo be able to create a launchpad account01:32
pleia2USSO also slurps info from launchpad, which is clever01:32
knome(at least if you first created a USSO account)01:32
knomeyou need to verify your email address01:33
belkinsaNo for both.01:33
knomewhich is probably valuable information01:33
knomewell you only need to verify once01:33
knomebecause you verify your account to USSO01:33
belkinsaYup, just once.01:33
knomewhatever the URL was where you verified01:33
knomebut to use USSO itself... you don't need to verify01:33
knomeafaiui01:33
belkinsaRight, the place you signed up first.01:34
belkinsaafaiui?01:34
pleia2as far as I understand it01:34
belkinsaAh.01:34
knomebelkinsa, doesn't matter01:34
knomewhat i'm saying,01:34
knomeit looks like you only need to verify if you want to create the launchpad account01:35
belkinsaAh.01:35
knomethough it might be the same for all services that wishes to use the SSO login01:35
belkinsaThen you have to verify to the site that you want to log in before getting back to the page that you were on.01:36
belkinsaMinus the wiki, it seems to take you back to the home page of the wiki,01:36
knomehmm...01:37
knomei should start to use "Usso Test" as my italian online igcognito name01:37
knomehttps://launchpad.net/~ussotest01:37
belkinsaI used Barsook for testing but I deleted that account already.01:38
knomewell i was too hasty.01:38
knomethat was left...01:38
knomehttps://launchpad.net/~ussotest201:38
knomei actually created two... O:(01:38
knomeO:) too01:38
belkinsaI had a belkinsa-i01:38
belkinsaAnyways, should this be fixed on the page?01:39
knomei would say the best way for new users is to create a launchpad account directly (unless they have ubuntu SSO, in which case they should be told to login to LP with those creds)01:40
knomeand for those who don't have either, mention that creating a LP account actually creates an SSO account as well.01:41
* pleia2 nods01:41
belkinsaAlright, on it.01:41
pleia2thanks knome and belkinsa :)01:41
belkinsaNot a problem.01:41
belkinsaThanks knome for stepping up to the plate.01:42
knomeno problem01:42
knomeit's actually useful to know how it's done.01:42
belkinsaAgreed.01:42
belkinsaAnd you scored a homerun.  ;)01:42
knomeeven if it means some extra LP accounts... :P01:42
knomehah ;)01:42
belkinsaDone.01:44
belkinsaAnd made a small change.01:46
knomewe actually didn't confirm if editing the wiki needs a LP account, or a ubuntu SSO account01:47
knomebelkinsa, or did you? :)01:47
belkinsaCrap.01:47
knomeit's a minor detail, but...01:48
belkinsaI'm assuming either since it's all linked to SSO.01:48
knomeeither meaning, SSO01:48
knomebecause SSO is the central account01:48
belkinsaThat.01:48
knomeit allows you to login to launchpad01:48
knomeand it always allows you to login to wiki (supposedly)01:49
belkinsaYes.  That's what I'm assuming.01:49
knomebut the wiki and launchpad accounts are not actually linked in any way01:49
knomeexcept that they are linked to the same ubuntu sso account01:49
* knome goes poking the wikipage01:49
belkinsaHow did someone forget to change this page when it happened?  How sad.01:50
knomethe WikiGuide pages aren't high traffic01:51
belkinsaAh.01:51
knomepage edited01:54
belkinsaWhich one01:55
belkinsahttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/WikiGuide/Registration?01:55
knomethat01:55
belkinsaNevermind, I see the changes and why did I not do that.01:55
knome:)01:56
belkinsaBut should we say something about other accesses?01:56
belkinsaI mean access to other services.01:56
knomei guess not01:56
knomebecause we're not telling them to create a LP account01:57
knomeso we don't need to tell them "btw, you also have a Ubuntu One account"01:57
belkinsaRIght.01:57
knomepleia2, also, ping, it's called "Ubuntu One account" now01:57
knomei guess the one last thing to check is that if the wiki editing works without a LP account01:58
knomebelkinsa, want to test that?01:58
pleia2knome: makes my brain hurt01:59
knomepleia2, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M68GeL8PafE01:59
belkinsaI hate to say this but no, I deleted my account but you said that you have a spare LP account test with.01:59
knomei don't, but i don't mind recreating one :)02:00
knomejust a sec.02:00
belkinsaOh02:00
pleia2knome: omg, that's one of my favorite skits!02:01
pleia2it will have to come out02:01
pleia2out? of my head?02:01
knomehehe02:03
knomethe ending is the best02:03
belkinsaThat made my day.02:03
belkinsaThanks.02:03
knomenow, could they please log me in to the community wiki02:04
pleia2no02:04
knomeseems to take forever.02:04
belkinsaI have some issues some times with that.02:04
knomeoh yes.02:05
knomei'm logged in02:05
knomewith no launchpad account02:05
pleia2winner02:05
knomewhich is silly02:05
belkinsaSo no go?02:05
knomewell yes go.02:05
belkinsaAh, misunderstood you.02:06
knomewait02:06
knomei'm logged in...02:06
knomebut i can't seem to be able to edit pages02:06
belkinsaYou need to log in again02:06
pleia2refresh 14 times or so02:06
knomehaha.02:06
pleia2caches get wonky02:06
belkinsaDid it take you back to the home page02:06
knomeno, i'm logged in02:06
knomethe banner says "Logout"02:07
knomebut the other banner doesn't say "Edit"02:07
knomeit says "Immutable page"02:07
belkinsaCache issue as pleia2 said.02:07
knomedoubt so02:07
belkinsaI even said that in my outline.02:07
pleia2it's a pretty common thing for people to encounter02:07
knomepleia2, i know, i encounter it as well02:07
pleia2usually if they log in with another browser it's ok02:08
knomewell here's the thing02:08
knomewhen i log in to this wiki with my real account02:08
knomeit wants information from my account02:08
knomeand it needs my username as well02:08
knomenow, with this new account02:08
knomei don't have a username02:08
pleia2ah, no lp so no username02:08
knomeyep.02:08
belkinsaAh.02:08
knomeso apparently that's why i can't edit.02:08
pleia2so we do need to tell people to get a lp account02:08
knomeso there *is* a connection with these two02:09
knomeit's a ... weird connection02:09
belkinsaD'oh.  That's where the username is coming from!02:09
knomeif i ever built a centralized login service, i wouldn't require users to have registered to another service with it to be able to work with another02:10
knomeso yes, we will basically need to tell people to get LP accounts02:10
knomewhich is sane in any case02:10
belkinsaAgreed02:10
knomeboo02:12
belkinsaWell, thanks for everything.  It's bed time for me02:14
knomebelkinsa, nighty :)02:15
knomepleia2, ping, see the page now, should be as complete as it gets02:18
knomewell, one can add information on "how do i check if i have a X account"02:19
* pleia2 thumbs up02:19
knomei feel like i need to write a blog article on this >__<02:21
pleia2yes, do it02:21
pleia2we did all that work!02:21
pleia2(you two did, I watched)02:21
knomehaha02:23
knomei will02:23
knomejust not today02:23
knomewell, maybe today02:23
knomebut not... before i sleep :P02:23
belkinsaknome, ping.17:12
knomebelkinsa, pong17:13
belkinsaQuestion about the @ubuntu.com e-mail, can users use to send e-mails?17:14
knomebelkinsa, there is no mailbox for those, so not really17:14
belkinsaWell, I know there is a way...with tricking your mail service.17:15
belkinsaBut not really worth doing.17:15
knomeyep17:15
belkinsaMy @ubuntusense.com e-mail has no box but I have it that I said that I said.17:16
=== jono is now known as Guest43181
shaunm_belkinsa: you can configure your mail client to use your @ubuntu.com as the From field without actually using an ubunut.com SMTP server18:34
shaunm_I do it with my @gnome.org address18:34
belkinsaI done that but I can't seem to send via Thunderbird.18:35
