[07:42] <apw> cjwatson, the listof valid sections, is that something we have the ability to change ?  (for context we just had an upload rejected on sync for a new one, reported on #ubuntu-release)
[08:33] <cjwatson> apw: yes, but I'll reply on #ubuntu-release rather than here
[08:38] <apw> cjwatson, thanks
[10:14] <acheronuk> a bug being spammed: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdebase/+bug/111195
[10:16] <cjwatson> acheronuk: cleaned up; https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+addquestion next time please
[12:30] <cjwatson> nacc: Your doc fix is live at https://launchpad.net/+apidoc/devel.html#archive-getPublishedSources now
[12:37] <rbasak> cjwatson: thanks!
[15:14] <nacc> cjwatson: great, thanks!
[17:27] <alkisg> Hi guys, I'd like some input on this project setup:  https://launchpad.net/ltsp
[17:27] <alkisg> LTSP has 3 subprojects, called ltsp, ldm and ltspfs, in different git repositories. Currently they're declared as "Series and milestones". Does that make sense, or should they be declared as separate launchpad projects?
[18:06] <cjwatson> If they're independent codebases, I'd be inclined to have them as separate projects (and a project group to cover them all if you can be bothered)
[18:07] <cjwatson> Series are weird ways to represent that
[18:07] <nacc> alkisg: i'd agree with cjwatson. The series/milestone doesn't make sense for independent code. As they would normally refer to (i think) 1.x, 2.x, 3.x or whatever
[18:07] <nacc> alkisg: all for the same code base that is
[18:07] <alkisg> Thank you guys. But what about existing translations, can those be moved?
[18:08] <alkisg> Or will the be lost with the move? Not the .pot/.po, but the internal launchpad memory...
[18:08] <cjwatson> I'm not currently sure I'm afraid, I don't know translations all that well
[18:08] <cjwatson> wgrant might know when they're around
[18:09] <alkisg> Ty; I'll ask him before doing such a bold move ;)
[20:30] <alkisg> And another question please... ogra has at some point started https://launchpad.net/ltsp-manager/, but it was never released. 10 years later, I started an unrelated project but wanted to use that name, and he agreed.
[20:31] <alkisg> I think now it would be best to complete delete https://launchpad.net/ltsp-manager/ and re-create it, right?
[20:31] <alkisg> So as to remove any "history" related to the previous, unreleased package...
[20:34] <cjwatson> there's not much point deleting and re-creating the project, but maybe clear out its remaining bzr branches
[20:35] <alkisg> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ltsp-manager
[20:35] <alkisg> There are 4 bug reports there, saying that it's not working at all
[20:35] <alkisg> Wouldn't deleting the project get rid of those?
[20:37] <alkisg> Also, I can't change the "Registered     2006-06-16     by     Oliver Grawert" line...
[20:37] <alkisg> (which doesn't apply anymore, since it's a different project...)
[20:39] <alkisg> Let me ask it in another way, if I ask ogra to delete it, I can then re-create it, right? Or will I get blocked by some kind of history that launchpad will keep internally?
[20:40] <cjwatson> Packages aren't projects
[20:40] <cjwatson> And does the registration date really matter?
[20:41] <alkisg> I can't claim "it's a new project" if it says 2006 :D
[20:41] <cjwatson> Oliver won't be able to delete it - project deletion is an admin thing and we'd have to rename the inactive project aside to avoid a collision
[20:41] <cjwatson> Sounds like a certain amount of admin work for not much gain
[20:41] <alkisg> Is it possible to replace the owner? (of course both will agree)
[20:41] <alkisg> Having ogra as the owner, when he's not related at all to the codebase, sounds a bit strange..
[20:42] <cjwatson> ogra isn't the owner, only the registrant
[20:42] <cjwatson> Which is a statement about history rather than something that conveys privilege
[20:42] <alkisg> Ah
[20:43] <cjwatson> So I mean if it reeeeeeeeeeeeeeally bothers you and ogra agrees then we can do it; it would be a request to https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+addquestion.  I'm just saying it seems like pretty minimal benefit, but whatever
[20:46] <alkisg> Thank you cjwatson, I'll start setting up the project there then, and ask if I have any issues that I don't have access to fix them
