Bugzilla permissions for <macro@linux-mips.org>

Bugzilla permissions for <macro@linux-mips.org>

[Maciej W. Rozycki]

Hi,

 In what I believe is a quest to defeat bugzilla vandalism I have been 
deprived of my usual bug modification permissions, however I can see 
accounts for my <macro@sourceware.org> and <macro@gcc.gnu.org> e-mail 
aliases have also been created, with suitable rights.  Would it be 
possible to get these extra accounts merged with my usual account I've 
held for years and have the bug editing rights restored?

 Best regards,

  Maciej

You have two bugzilla accounts: macro@gcc.gnu.org and macro@linux-mips.org.
Which one would you like merged into the other?

 I'd like to keep <macro@linux-mips.org> I've been using with FSF for some 
10 years know.  I can have <macro@gcc.gnu.org> and <macro@sourceware.org> 
as Bugzilla e-mail aliases, just as with the system itself, so that 
someone cannot attempt to hijack them; I hope this is how Bugzilla works, 
as I have never tried this feature before.

 Thanks for your assistance.

  Maciej

OK, merged your macro@gcc.gnu.org gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla account into the
macro@linux-mips.org one.  Enjoy.

 Thanks, however I still can't seem able to modify bugs, not at least with 
the sourceware.org Bugzilla, and I can still log in to 
<macro@sourceware.org> as a separate account.  Being a MIPS target 
maintainer for binutils and GDB I find it a tad inconvenient.  Anything 
I've missed?

 Thanks,

  Maciej

 Can I please have it sorted out sooner rather than later?  I'm currently 
blocked by this account fork and deprivation of Bugzilla permissions with 
bugs #17560 and #20649, the status of which I need to update, and by the 
turn of events it looks to me like the vandals did reach their goals in 
that they have hindered legitimate users. :(

 Best regards,

  Maciej

Done.

Not sure what your impediment with status changes was.  On the
sourceware.org/bugzilla, we don't have very tight editbugs ACLs
applied; hardly anyone has that flag set, and yet bugs move along.
Anyway, please try now.

 Well, being able to take bugs let alone close them will make my work flow 
easier.  I can't comment on other people's habits.

 Doesn't seem to work this time I'm afraid; something went differently 
from `gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla'.  Please try again.
