Hello everyone,

I would like to formally request admin permission on the Jenkinsci GitHub organization: https://github.com/jenkinsci/

Why am I asking for this?

Two main reasons:
  • I have generally been helping with hosting and permissions setup since a few years, and regularly have to nag Daniel or Oleg for fixing some things that are requiring more permissions than I have. 
    Getting the permission would help spread the load, and avoid putting unnecessary pressure on them when an action does require Admin permissions.
  • Secondarily, given my regular work, most recently for the Java 11 initiative, I often need to file PRs everywhere in the organization touching Jenkinsfiles. But not being an admin, PRs will not use my change, and so I'm back to nagging Oleg or Daniel is the maintainer is unavailable for whatever reason.

What I do NOT plan to do with these additional permissions:
  • Even if I could then be able to push directly anywhere, I will NOT change my behavior compared to now.
    I will act on various repositories as I'm doing now: in agreement with current maintainers, and will use these permissions very carefully.
Complementary note: my GitHub account has 2FA enabled, my disk is encrypted, and my passwords are all uniquely generated and stored using KeePass.

Thank you

-- Baptiste

+1 from me. Baptiste is a long-time contributor in the Jenkins project, and he contributes a lot to the project governance. He has also signed the project's ICLA. Baptiste already has a write access to the Jenkins Core, Repository Permission Updater, and Admin access on DockerHub. So he already has a good track of administrative access to the Jenkins infra components.

Having more people with admin access to jenkinsci would be definitely helpful, because we receive more and more org-level requests for apps and team management.

BR, Oleg
