Hi, quick update for you:
Trying to make this happen, and keeps crashing.
https://lp-oops.canonical.com/oops.py/?oopsid=OOPS-1265EB40 (for the record)

Cheers!

still open

so it is possible to get my request solve ?

This is a known bug:

  https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/launchpad-registry/+bug/156217

I've added a comment to the bug report. Unfortunately we probably
can't proceed until that bug is fixed.

Reopening; I did not mean to mark it as answered.

ok ... so this question will be remaining open until it got fixed :)

As per our policy, I am marking this question closed since there is an open bug about it.

The bug preventing this request from being completed has been fixed and landed on edge.

Please, try and merge the teams again.

can someone help me merge the 2 team ....

So I can do this, but realize that the 178 members of ~malaysianteam will have to subscribe manually to ubuntu-my. Is that okay with you, or do you want to write an API script to move them over first?

owh .. i though it can be merge just like that ..

how do i write the API script to move them over first? is it will have redundancy/replicate user in ~ubuntu-my after merging?

It's pretty easy to write an API client to manage subscriptions to a team. Check this documentation out: http://help.launchpad.net/API/ -- basically the code you want to write would

  - fetch all users from ~malaysianteam
  - for each of them, add them to the ~ubuntu-my team

It's probably no more than 10 lines in total. Ask on #launchpad if you need any help!

i've try using the api with the help of amoog , but at last , result with this

Leonard replied in your bug report, check it out and get back to me!

hi christian,

i already add the malaysianteam to ubuntu-my , seem everything going smoothly .. so admin launchpad will remove the malaysianteam ?

Done. Thanks! Can you provide us with the script text so we can document it on help.launchpad.net?

    return launchpad

launchpad = connect_lp()

members = launchpad.people[oldteam].members

for member in members:
    print "Adding %s to the team" % member.display_name
    try:
        launchpad.people[newteam].addMember(person=member, status="Approved")
    except HTTPError as error:
        print "The error %s has occured" % error

thanks to all launchpad team and Andreas Moog for helping me out to merge the 2 team. i think this problem/question already solved.

Thanks Guys ...
