[16:08] <Eickmeyer> Hello 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.
[16:09] <Eickmeyer> Please see https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/technical-board/2019-March/002428.html
[16:10] <Eickmeyer> To help, bugs are as follows, FFe's are in place.

[16:19] <acheronuk> Unit193: ^^ ??
[16:20] <Eickmeyer> Sorry, wasn't meaning to flood the channel.
[16:48] <acheronuk> as said elsewhere, he is a newish MOTU ;)
[16:59] <Eickmeyer> acheronuk: I appreciate it.
[17:11] <Eickmeyer> So far, we have had a "maybe" repsonse. Is there another MOTU that can step-in?
[17:18] <teward> Eickmeyer: not sure if you saw slangasek's call for you to resubmit ASAP for upload privs to DMB or not
[17:19] <Eickmeyer> teward: 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.
[17:20] <Eickmeyer> I 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.
[20:32] <Unit193> acheronuk: What's up?
[20:33] <acheronuk> Unit193: hi. ubuntu studio were urgently looking for some MOTU sponsorship. messages above or in the logs
[20:34] <Eickmeyer> Unit193: I also sent you an email.
[20:35] <acheronuk> active MOTUs are hard to find
[20:38] <Eickmeyer> acheronuk: I'm basically going down this list starting with latest membership: https://launchpad.net/~motu/+members
[20:39] <Eickmeyer> Made it as far as jbicha.
[21:29] <Unit193> Looks like it is being handled.
[21:38] <rbasak> Eickmeyer: AFAICT, Ross never submitted an uploader application. Only a contributing developer one (for which he was successful)
[21:39] <Eickmeyer> rbasak: I didn't know the difference, and perhaps he didn't either.
[21:40] <Eickmeyer> Is there a different process for contributing developer?
[21:40] <Eickmeyer> And, if not, then is there a way to transfer that to PPU?
[21:40] <rbasak> I wish I could share the previous thread, but some of it was private and I'd need others' permission.
[21:41] <Eickmeyer> That's fine.
[21:42] <rbasak> Reading it now, I think I laid out the requirements pretty clearly in the previous thread, but nothing happened :-/
[21:43] <rbasak> (essentially, get actual uploads sponsored, and then tell us about them)
[21:43] <Eickmeyer> mitya57 is getting the uploads sponsored right now (I'm working with him in #ubuntu-release).
[21:44] <Eickmeyer> After which, I hope he'll put in for me on my application, then I'll be applying officially.
[21:44] <rbasak> That sounds good. Thanks!
[21:44] <Eickmeyer> It's a bit of a "hail mary" pass to keep Ubuntu Studio alive at this point.
[21:44] <rbasak> Please let me know if you need any help with the process side of things.
[21:44] <rbasak> I will reply to Steve's email.
[21:45] <Eickmeyer> rbasak: I appreciate it. I'm also working with tsimonq2.
[21:45] <rbasak> Being on IRC really helps.
[21:45] <Eickmeyer> If you saw my IRC channel list, your head might spin with all of the channels I'm in. XD
