I think the only people on it are Antoine, Georg, and myself. Antoine has said he has left python-dev, Georg is often busy with school, and I'm on a temp machine for a few weeks so I can't add any SSH keys for a while (heck I'll probably need new ones installed on my behalf once I have a permanent machine).

Is anyone up for helping with adding SSH keys for people? It's basically taking someone's key as an attachment in an email, making sure it's RSA and not DSA, and then either creating a new file in a specific repo for them or appending it to their existing key file.

P.S.: And I don't even remember how to get people added to the group of people who can add keys, so I probably need to find that out as well if anyone steps forward. =)

How often does this come up? This doesn’t sound like something that requires a lot of time to do.

Maybe once a month, if that. But there have been times when people have sent in keys and it has taken a week or so to get them set up which seems too long.

I'm willing to volunteer for this. I understand how this stuff works, and no, it doesn't take much time per request...

Thanks to David, Eric, and Kushal for volunteering (and Jesus for willing to but there is no tutorial). I have asked the infrastructure team how to grant you all access to the needed hg repo and get you on the hgaccounts email alias.

I am well versed in sysadmin (20 years in the trenches). For me a tutorial is "you have to commit this key file in this repository, and then update that other indexfile. Verify that everything is OK doing that".

:-)

Anyway, three new volunteer for a monthly 10 minutes action looks enough to me O:-).

I wonder about the new PSF "infraestructure/programming volunteers". Never heard of them and I am more than willing to help out.

The infra team handles the back end servers for PyPI, PyCon, python.org, et al.

Folks with the "keys to the kingdom" are listed at http://psf-salt.readthedocs.org/en/latest/overview/ (along with a good overview of the extent of the kingdom), while https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/infrastructure is the general infra mailing list.

Cheers, Nick.

This is getting a bit offtopic :).

You might need to be added to admin the repo before it will authenticate your checkout.

This is likely an ssh problem on your end, not an hg problem.

Apparently you MUST be added to the maintenance group BEFORE being able to clone the repository. I think this should be documented more clearly in the devguide.

I think it's once or twice a day. We should probably document if there is a way to check why a doc push has not happened. Until then I guess file a bug against the website?
