Could you please add David Schoonover and Andrew Otto to the Project Creators group? Best, Diederik

I don't want to give this right to all engineers because setting up new repositories is more than just choosing the name. There's also the issue of understanding how Gerrit permissions work so you can set them up properly. I did make a new "Project Creators" group that I'm more than willing to add people to, once they've learned Gerrit permissions.
In addition, unless you make a group you're in the owner of the repo (which can't be done via the GUI, only the CLI--this is a bug), you won't be able to set permissions at all (this is by design).
So yeah, its not as easy as it sounds on the tin, so I don't want to hand this out en masse. In an ideal world, I want us to have a special page where people can request repos and we can automate the icky backend stuff.

Hi all,
Ryan Lane just showed me that in Gerrit there is a separate right for creating repositories. I suggest we give this right to all WMF engineers. A repo is free and fun and will prevent unnecessary delays.
Best, Diederik
