Following approval by TechCom and WMF Interim CTO Erika Bjune, I've
moved the new Gerrit privilege policy page out of my userspace to
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Gerrit/Privilege_policy
This is a merge of two pages: [[Gerrit/+2]] and [[Gerrit/Project
ownership]], with some additional changes. I've now redirected both of
those pages to the new policy page.
The main changes are:
* The wmde LDAP group, representing WMDE staff members, will be given
+2 access to mediawiki/* projects, similar to the rights given to WMF
staff members.
* The ability of ShoutWiki and Hallo Welt! to manage access to the
extensions they maintain is described and formalised.
* The ownership model for extensions is discouraged in favour of
individual requests on Phabricator. An extension owner was able to
promote developers to +2 access at their own discretion.
* The Phabricator projects for requesting access have changed. I'm in
the process of moving the tickets over.
* The revocation policy has been expanded, better describing the
present situation and making several minor changes.
