Hi,

If you are a Gluon member, you have to join kde-developpers groups. Please change your profil as soon as you can.

Greetings,

I'd just like to clarify what's actually being asked here:

Basically, committers to Gluon (as with all other KDE projects on Gitorious) should be members of the kde-developers group for better management [1]. This is not something you can simply change in your profile. Committers will have to file a sysadmin request at https://bugs.kde.org/enter_sysadmin_request.cgi?component=gitorious and mention their gitorious and SVN account names. Please make sure that your SVN and Bugzilla accounts use the same email address.

Of course, this implies that you need a KDE SVN account (and who doesn't want to have one? ;) [2] and of course a KDE Bugzilla account. The reason for this is to consolidate developer accounts across both Gitorious and SVN and to facilitate KDE's move to it's own Git hosting solutions. [3] KDE has always had a "commit access everywhere" policy, so it make sense that developers on Gitorious have commit access to KDE SVN as well.
