Eclipse microprofile repo creation experience

[Emily Jiang]

I asked to have the microprofile-fault-tolerance repository created recently. However, after the repo creation, the repository is readonly to me, even though I am a committer for microprofile projects. I had to raise another bugzilla and wait for the repository to be workable. I noticed Keiko did a similar bugzilla to ask permission for microprofile-health repo.

How come this process is so cumbersome?

I thought I should share my experience as more repo will be created. I have approached Mike and Wayne in Eclipse to ask them to look into this.

I've got the same issue with the health repo, which is why my initial PR is still waiting to be merged. I've created a ticket but if someone can grant me commit acccces i would appreciate it

Just follow up on this:

The permission issue was an c&p error when creating the repo, as per the bugzilla comment. We should not need to ask permission as the permission should be granted as part of the repo creation.

@Heiko, the microprofile-health repo looks ok to me. Are you a microprofile committer? If not, it might be why you cannot directly write to it. You can create PR and any committer can review/merge it after the PR discussion.

Thanks

Yes, I am a comitter.

Well, whatever that means. My vote did pass at least. That's a while ago and I've signed the ECA. Does it require a separate step to enable committer status on the microprofile?

Yes, you need to follow the Eclipse committer instruction emailed to you by eclipse.

Looks like the permissions have just been updated. I didn't see a merge button before, but there's one there now. I guess this would be the same for Heiko.
