[19:14] <clivejo> is there any way to allow other people to upload to a PPA?
[19:41] <cjwatson> clivejo: Either make the PPA team-owned and add them to the team; or, undocumentedly, you can use edit-acl from lp:ubuntu-archive-tools thus: edit-acl -A ppa:PPA-OWNER-NAME/ubuntu/PPA-NAME -c main -p UPLOADER-NAME add
[19:41] <cjwatson> (which basically wraps https://launchpad.net/+apidoc/devel.html#archive-newComponentUploader)
[19:42] <clivejo> can a private PPA be converted to team owned?
[19:46] <cjwatson> No.
[19:47] <cjwatson> Although you can create a new PPA under appropriate team ownership and copy everything over to it.
[19:48] <clivejo> also, can recipes be used to monitor a 3rd site for new source code and built it if necessary?
[19:50] <cjwatson> Recipes can only work with branches in Launchpad, but you can set up code imports in combination with recipes to achieve that.
[19:50] <cjwatson> (Although not for private branches.)
[20:14] <clivejo> I see
[20:14] <clivejo> is there way to envoke uscan to grab the source?
[20:14] <clivejo> and a cron every week or something?
