[15:49] <mapreri> so, we have this person with sikon@ubuntu.com email address, but 1/ that adddress doesn't exist anymore 2/ there is public user in lp with username ~sikon.
[15:49] <mapreri> How do I know if it was just renamed or it's totally gone?
[15:50] <cjwatson> https://launchpad.net/~sikon doesn't exist ...
[15:50] <cjwatson> did you mean "there is no public user ..."?
[15:50] <mapreri> that's the same page for non-public page, so I don't know if it's just non-existent or hidden to me.
[15:51] <cjwatson> so, that address is attached to a different LP user, but I'm reluctant to say who because they have their settings configured to hide email addresses.
[15:52] <mapreri> cjwatson: does he have gpg key C98D9133762ACACB50A0E8B13A8336743AF72612 ?
[15:52] <cjwatson> oh, actually, you can find out yourself by searching on https://launchpad.net/people, apparently.  I guess we only restrict finding out email addresses from a user, not finding a user when you already know their address.
[15:53] <mapreri> oh, well..
[15:53] <mapreri> that's easy
[15:53] <cjwatson> and yes, that's their key
[15:53] <mapreri> and there is no real recent activity, ok...
[15:54]  * mapreri is doing MIA team's work (if you were wondering).
[15:54] <mapreri> cjwatson: thanks, that helped :)
[16:55] <nacc> is there a 'preferred' way to compare ubuntu series for which is later in launchpadlib? or should i just use the date_created filed?
[16:55] <nacc> *field
[17:07] <cjwatson> nacc: You can compare the versions using debian.debian_support.Version (from python-debian), or rely on distribution.series giving you the series in reverse-sorted order.
[17:08] <cjwatson> date_created will technically work but is wrong, so don't.
[17:08] <nacc> cjwatson: ack, hence why i asked :)
[18:40] <eliasps> Any Launchpad administrator here to have a look at this when convenient? https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+question/293510 Thanks.
