Launchpad itself

Change project creator of widelands project

Asked by SirVer

The widelands team is switching to launchpad for translations. Because of bug

https://bugs.launchpad.net/rosetta/+bug/520053

there is a lot of manual labor involved changing names away from Dan O'Huiginn to myself all over the places. I am quite fed up to have to do this and since Dan is neither involved with widelands in any way, nor has he contributed or is he contributing to us, I ask to bend history and change the project creator of widelands to myself so that those bugs do not bite us any more. It would also stop people from contacting Dan while he cannot offer information about widelands.

The widelands project was started by myself on sourceforge.net on 2001-11-15:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/widelands/

It would be very nice if launchpad could reflect those information in some kind of way.

Cheers and thanks,
Holger

The registratant of a project cannot be changed. Projects change hands often, and the registrant is used for historical records because users often register projects that are not their own. The project maintainer and drivers are the important users.

Can you help with this problem?
