it's complicated (and I assume will take some time) to get an account. (Despite the fact that I had to do the same for svn AND labs already.)
I'm confused. Making a new wikitech/labs/gerrit account for an existing svn user that wishes to continue using the same shell name and git username as they were using for svn requires manual intervention (as far as I know) from someone from a relatively limited pool of people. (about half dozen people are able to make that happen)
But you can't possibly have a labs account (as you state you do) without also having a gerrit account. So you should already be able to use gerrit with that same account.
Yes you are right and I was confused. Which was my second argument, it is not that clear and might be better pointed out to other users what account serves for what purpose... I somehow lost the overview... ;) And the activation of the gerrit account for labs was a bit of pain in the "old" days when I did it... May be this has changed... ;)
For brand new users (e.g. anyone that recently tried to get a new svn account and the account wasn't actually made yet) they can just make a new account @ [[wikitech:special:createaccount]] like everyone else and then use those creds with gerrit.
Good to hear!
Thanks for your info and pointing this out! Greetings DrTrigon
