EickmeyerHello MOTUs! Ubuntu Studio is in dire need of someone to sponsor and upload 8 packages for us. Then, hopefully, that sponsor would be willing to sponsor myself and one other for PPU privileges. Ubuntu Studio is in danger of disappearing as a flavor since nobody on the team has upload privileges in any way.16:08
EickmeyerPlease see https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/technical-board/2019-March/002428.html16:09

acheronukUnit193: ^^ ??16:19
EickmeyerSorry, wasn't meaning to flood the channel.16:20
acheronukas said elsewhere, he is a newish MOTU ;)16:48
Eickmeyeracheronuk: I appreciate it.16:59
EickmeyerSo far, we have had a "maybe" repsonse. Is there another MOTU that can step-in?17:11
tewardEickmeyer: not sure if you saw slangasek's call for you to resubmit ASAP for upload privs to DMB or not17:18
Eickmeyerteward: I did. I never submitted to begin with. I have until Friday, but 1) the packages need to be sponsored so I have history, and 2) said sponsor needs to sponsor me in order for the application to be successful.17:19
EickmeyerI haven't heard from Ross since before all of this went down, so I'm not sure if I can count on him to resubmit or not.17:20
Unit193acheronuk: What's up?20:32
acheronukUnit193: hi. ubuntu studio were urgently looking for some MOTU sponsorship. messages above or in the logs20:33
EickmeyerUnit193: I also sent you an email.20:34
acheronukactive MOTUs are hard to find20:35
Eickmeyeracheronuk: I'm basically going down this list starting with latest membership: https://launchpad.net/~motu/+members20:38
EickmeyerMade it as far as jbicha.20:39
Unit193Looks like it is being handled.21:29
rbasakEickmeyer: AFAICT, Ross never submitted an uploader application. Only a contributing developer one (for which he was successful)21:38
Eickmeyerrbasak: I didn't know the difference, and perhaps he didn't either.21:39
EickmeyerIs there a different process for contributing developer?21:40
EickmeyerAnd, if not, then is there a way to transfer that to PPU?21:40
rbasakI wish I could share the previous thread, but some of it was private and I'd need others' permission.21:40
EickmeyerThat's fine.21:41
rbasakReading it now, I think I laid out the requirements pretty clearly in the previous thread, but nothing happened :-/21:42
rbasak(essentially, get actual uploads sponsored, and then tell us about them)21:43
Eickmeyermitya57 is getting the uploads sponsored right now (I'm working with him in #ubuntu-release).21:43
EickmeyerAfter which, I hope he'll put in for me on my application, then I'll be applying officially.21:44
rbasakThat sounds good. Thanks!21:44
EickmeyerIt's a bit of a "hail mary" pass to keep Ubuntu Studio alive at this point.21:44
rbasakPlease let me know if you need any help with the process side of things.21:44
rbasakI will reply to Steve's email.21:44
Eickmeyerrbasak: I appreciate it. I'm also working with tsimonq2.21:45
rbasakBeing on IRC really helps.21:45
EickmeyerIf you saw my IRC channel list, your head might spin with all of the channels I'm in. XD21:45
