[20:50] <tsimonq2> Hey there, could someone accept Martin's nomination for Artful and Zesty on bug 1641912?
[20:50] <ubot5> bug 1641912 in gtk+2.0 (Ubuntu Xenial) "Please backport two recent-manager patches" [Critical,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1641912
[22:50] <bdmurray> tsimonq2: Are those tasks being worked on / committed to by someone?
[22:57] <tsimonq2> bdmurray: Yes, me.
[22:58] <tsimonq2> bdmurray: I'll be uploading debdiffs for those releases shortly.
[23:07] <bdmurray> tsimonq2: If you are uploading the debdiffs to the SRU queue then when they are reviewed the SRU team tools add the tasks so approving them now is kind of just busy work
[23:09] <tsimonq2> bdmurray: Ok, fair enough, I was not aware.
[23:10] <bdmurray> tsimonq2: I forget when I modified the tools but I did it because people kept forgetting to add tasks.
[23:14] <tsimonq2> bdmurray: Ah, ok.
[23:14] <tsimonq2> bdmurray: What kind of permissions does someone need to do that? Just Bug Control?
[23:16] <bdmurray> tsimonq2: to nominate for release or accept a nomination?
[23:22] <bdmurray> to accept a nomination you must be able to upload the package e.g. a core-dev
[23:23] <bdmurray> to nominate being a member of bug control is fine
[23:23] <hggdh> bdmurray: wasn'tthe release team also able to accept?
[23:23] <tsimonq2> bdmurray: Ohhh ok so if I was a MOTU and I just wanted to set it on a package in Universe, I could do that.
[23:24] <tsimonq2> bdmurray: Cool. Thanks!
[23:44] <bdmurray> hggdh: something like that yes
[23:44] <bdmurray> hggdh: but that's abnormal so I didn't mention it
