| wgrant | ki7mt: No, a team must have an owner that isn't itself. | 00:14 |
|---|---|---|
| wgrant | (and you can't create cycles, eg. have two teams that own each other) | 00:14 |
| ki7mt | wgrant, Ok, thanks. Will need to look at that a bit more in depth. | 00:28 |
| mpt | As the admin of a team, is there any way to unsubscribe someone from the team’s mailing list? (They claim that they can’t do it) | 11:07 |
| wgrant | mpt: All you can do is remove them from the team. | 11:28 |
| wgrant | mpt: However, you should tell them they're wrong. | 11:28 |
| mpt | Launchpad says “You must log in to join or leave this team.” | 11:29 |
| wgrant | Then they should probably log in :) | 11:29 |
| mpt | Right, but they last used Launchpad years ago | 11:29 |
| mpt | They don’t remember their password | 11:29 |
| wgrant | They'll need to reset it, then. | 11:29 |

| wgrant | I speak of current reality, not fiction. | 11:30 |
| mpt | I know, I’m just pointing out this is a problem (just reported as bug 1455896) | 11:31 |
| ubot5 | bug 1455896 in Launchpad itself "Can't unsubscribe from mailing list without logging in" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1455896 | 11:31 |
| wgrant | However, I've always found it quite extraordinary that people expect to be able to unsubscribe without logging in when they had to log in to subscribe. | 11:34 |
| wgrant | Unauthenticated unsubscription is more than a little dodgy. | 11:34 |
| mpt | It’s a legal requirement in the US. | 11:37 |
| mpt | That you must not be required to log in to unsubscribe from anything. | 11:37 |
| wgrant | Hm? | 11:39 |
| wgrant | Have we determined that CAN-SPAM is applicable to mailing lists? | 11:39 |
| mpt | I don’t know. But most of the mailing lists that most people are subscribed to are commercial ones, so they’ll be used to that ease of unsubscription. | 11:44 |
