[15:15] <powersj> cjwatson, can I have you look at https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+question/346180
[15:15] <powersj> Robie pointed me at you to see about getting this done, while he is out of the office this week.
[15:20] <cjwatson> powersj: rbasak was wrong, I'm afraid; I don't have permissions to do that.  I'd suggest asking whoever's the vanguard in #webops on irc.c.c.
[15:21] <cjwatson> Only full admins can make arbitrary team ownership changes to teams they aren't involved with, not mere Launchpad staff.
[15:24] <powersj> cjwatson, ok thank you
[16:30] <ulm> https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+question/355999
[16:30] <ulm> ^^ why are spammers allowed to vandalise my question?
[16:34] <cjwatson> ulm: we're fixing that
[16:34] <cjwatson> sorry for the inconvenience
[16:35] <ulm> thanks
[16:35] <ulm> restoring it now for the second time ...
[16:35] <cjwatson> already done
[16:35] <tsimonq2> cjwatson: why do PPA publishers take so long? a performance boost on that would be very appreciated, especially for stuff like the Kubuntu CI which uses Launchpad as it's backend
[16:36] <cjwatson> tsimonq2: because there are a hell of a lot of PPAs; no easy wins there, sorry
[16:36] <cjwatson> (William was working on a partial parallelisation, which should help a bit)
[16:36] <tsimonq2> cjwatson: so there's no artificial delay, it's just the publishers working 24/7? :O
[16:36] <tsimonq2> oh ok cool :)
[16:36] <cjwatson> pretty much yes
[16:37] <ulm> cjwatson: should I supply any further credentials in #355999, or is this sufficient?
[16:37] <cjwatson> we do have a plan for better scaling, but that's a larger project
[16:38] <cjwatson> ulm: I'm afraid I haven't thought about it as yet, I'm mostly off working on another thing right now which is consuming all my attention.  What you have there is probably fine, it's just somebody will have to think about it and do some research to avoid being subject to obvious social-engineering attacks, as I'm sure you'll understand
[16:40] <ulm> cjwatson: sure
[18:42] <eldarkg> hello guys

[20:19] <rbasak> cjwatson: you mean there's something you _don't_ have powers to do? I'm devastated! :-P
[20:19] <rbasak> cjwatson: thank you for pointing powersj in the right direction. It got sorted.
[20:20] <rbasak> The question did get spammed though: https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+question/346180
[20:21] <rbasak> (which is itself is interesting)
