I created a task in phab to be added to NDA ldap, so I can sign the NDA and get shell
access:
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T211996
One of the subtasks (from
https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Volunteer_NDA#Privileged_LDAP_or_shell_… ) on
this is to get
[ ] At least one comment of support from a Wikimedia Foundation employee, explaining why
it is a good idea to accept your request
[ ] A comment of approval from one Wikimedia Foundation manager (usually the manager of an
employee supporting you).
[ ] (Have someone with access double-check which
mediawiki.org account that the
manager's Phabricator account is linked to, where the SUL account was created, and how
it was created on that wiki.)
Can someone do this? If you need to see some qualifications I can try to get some code of
mine to you from some old puppet stuff I've done and I can show you my github, where
you can see some of my code.
If I'm making a rookie mistake here and this type of access is not needed, let me
know. I'm also sasheto +i on IRC #wikimedia-tech, so you can message me there too, I
check it from time to time.
