Stop inviting me to the NixOS github organisation

[ChrisJefferson]

I don't know if the is the right repository.

Stop inviting me to the NixOS organisation. I've cancelled the invite 3 times already. I don't want to have to click on the "report them for abuse" button, but I will if you don't stop.

Hi Chris,

sorry, this isn't intended to abuse you. It's probably a bug in the invite script that we built.

Let me get back to you with some more details in a few.

[ChrisJefferson]

Thanks. Sorry if that sounded a bit too annoyed, but I suspect you are annoying other people too...

[zimbatm]

No worries :)

Here is your maintainer entry: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/a08d4f605bca62c282ce9955d5ddf7d824e89809/maintainers/maintainer-list.nix#L1342-L1347

more details coming soon

The reason we are inviting maintainers to the org is because of how GitHub works. This allows us to automatically assign pull-requests related to the packages that you maintain to be assigned to you for review.

I wish we could better explain this when sending the invite

The repeated invite is a bug and should be fixed. /cc @grahamc

Hey Chris, Thanks for letting us know. It seems the API for invitations changed semantics without us knowing. It used to work in such a way that we would not and could not invite you repeatedly. Can you say exactly when you received those emails? Thanks, Graham

You're invited to join the NixOS organisation:

27/08/2019
25/02/2020
04/03/2020
12/03/2020
20/03/2020
I finally click "decline": 20/03/2020 8:31
another invite 20/03/2020 9:31
I click "decline again" on 20/03/2020 9:33
another invite 20/03/2020 10:30

So it seems like every 7 days (when the last one expired), or about 30 minutes after I click decline

[ChrisJefferson]

To be clear, the reason I am not clicking accept (I'm not just being arkward) is because you won't let me accept without 2 factor authentication (reasonable) and I'm not going to enable that.

A PR fixing the repeated invitations has been merged. Unfortunately we have to send one more invitation to mark you down as invited. See: NixOS/nixpkgs#107815
