I’m co-project lead but haven’t followed the conversation, what are we shutting down? I also imagine other projects publish in the org.glassfish namespace of which I am not a project committer or
project lead.

Subject: Re: [ee4j-pmc] Migration to Jakarta installation of Nexus
Hi,
Thanks! I’ll try to stage or just access Jakarta.oss soon.
I’m just a member of the GF team so I’m not authorised to decide about shutting down.
Steve is the team lead (should be reading this list) and would be in a better position for that. I will discuss with Romain who is much involved with the practical side of running the jobs.
Thx!

Hello Arjan,
Thanks for volunteering to help out with the remaining migrations. The glassfish-bot user is created on the new instance, I'll just need to assign it the org.glassfish deployment role and you'll be all set. Before we proceed, are you able
to authorize disabling the account on
oss.sonatype.org? We wouldn't want to cause any unexpected interruptions. If there are other users you'd like to activate on the new host in addition to the glassfish-bot users, just let me know (the process will be similar for them).
Better, they should just switch to the new Nexus and avoid the confusion.
Indeed, so that means the user for GlassFish has to be created on the new Nexus. I'm willing to volunteer, but I've no idea how to do that.
Terry,
Meet Arjan who has volunteered to organize the remaining batches of migrations (the users we held).
Arjan, the primary job is:
- Don't kill Terry with a dozen migration requests -- try to organize the projects into say 1 to 3 more batches/waves
- Knock on the doors of the implementation projects and ask:
- if they want to migrate (it's their choice)
- ask them when they might want to migrate
- group them together as makes sense
- Work with Terry to identify a cutover date for each batch
- Work with the implementation projects to ensure they are aware and ready for their cutover date
- Deal with any complaints
The shorter version is, do the best you can, try to get people to help you while you help them :)
