Hey, we started an Android repo in the Pocket org. Now that MozillaSocial org is up and running and the Android engineers joined it we'd like to move it to the proper org.

Chris, I'm honestly not sure if we need you to do anything or if someone (like Daniel or Eric) who is an admin in both orgs can do it. But I'm opening this bug to get the ball rolling.

Repository to be moved: https://github.com/Pocket/MozillaSocialAndroid
Org to move it to: https://github.com/MozillaSocial
Add write access to (at least) this group: https://github.com/orgs/MozillaSocial/teams/android

It is private in the Pocket org and I think we want to keep it private for now in the org as well.

I'm going to needinfo a few people, in case they are needed for approvals or for awareness at least:
Daniel as the admin most closely working with mobile engineers
Eric as the creator of the org
Nicole as the mobile EM
John as the creator/admin of the repo

Transfers are org owner level functions, so this bug is apropos. Given that this is an internal transfer there isn't any need to engage legal.

For approval I just need to hear from an admin of the repo in its current home (:dbrooks, :joberhauser) and one of the admin team in mozilla social (I think that's being used for "deciders" in that org) (:dbrooks, :efixler)

In addition to approvals... there's the matter of team access in the new home you have the android team for write access - but who should have admin access?

Once we have all that I can migrate the repo over.

I approve this transfer as a decider for both orgs.

For admin access please set it to https://github.com/orgs/MozillaSocial/teams/admin-team (this will be the case for almost all repos in the MozillaSocial org)
For maintainer access it can be https://github.com/orgs/MozillaSocial/teams/android
and finally for write access it can be https://github.com/orgs/MozillaSocial/teams/engineering

Alright, approvals and teams hurdle crossed - to avoid impacting work in flight - is there a time when this should be done? Or just "At the earliest convenience"?

I think the team would like to do it next week Marcin is went on PTO today and yesterday and they are waiting for him to be back.

Perfect, just update here with date/time guidance and I can work with you to get this transferred.

Hi, this ticket still has an NI on me, which I think is just not up to date, but in any event here is my 👍🏼

Removing the NI on me. I don't think I'm needed for anything more here.

Just checking in - I haven't seen any notice around when you'd like things transferred.

Once you let me know we can work on getting the transfer completed.

Chris, thanks for checking in. I'm back, but still trying to figure out the best time to do it. I will let you know!

No rush from my end, just didn't want to let the ball drop. Note that once moved, the old URL will automatically redirect to the new location - which can help with disruption. (but not completely remove it)

Chris, thanks for your patience. We are ready to transfer the repository at your earliest convenience now. Preferably today if this works for you.

Alright, the repo is now moved, and team access has been set per comment 2. Note that OC users came over with it - please clean up any that you no longer need.
