FAS accounts: Who is from India?

[Rahul Sundaram]

Hi,

I was looking to query FAS to figure out how many people are from India 
and was pointed to

https://fedorahosted.org/releases/p/y/python-fedora/doc/api.html#fedora-acco...

With python-fedora, we should be able to get the details, I think. 
Anyone, care to look at this? It would be useful for gathering some 
metrics and potentially get in touch, assuming the privacy policy allows 
that.

Let me look into it...time permitting.
May be in a couple of days?

Susmit,

Did you have time to look at this? Since you are already dropping mails 
to ambassadors, you might want to invite them to this list and ask them 
to introduce themselves. I suspect many of them are still not aware that 
this list exists or not subscribed to it yet.

Hello,

I did had a look at it long long back and as far as I can recall the
API for filtering acc. to places was not implemented. I will recheck
and see if it is working and confirm in day or two.

Hi

I did check it today and i was unable to segregate Users based on
country_code as country_code is not implemented in people_by_key() API as
well as in people_by_id(). i tried changing the code of fas2.py and its like
the FAS Server needs to be updated if i were to use people_by_key(). Hence i
have kept it on hold.

Cheers,
Balaji

I guess that was the case when I last checked. Will see if it can be
patched easily(on server side). Why don't you give a try ? If
interested check out fix and catch Toshio on #fedora-devel or
#fedora-admin for some help.

I would suggest: if it is easy, patch it up and send it to him and then chat.

That I shall do.
And no, I am so very sorry to say, I didn't find reasonable time to
get it done. :(
I thought I could, but ...

I suspect that is more of a policy than a bug.
FAS doesn't let others (even admins) see the country info if someone
has chosen to keep his/her information private.

FAmSCo is trying to get (atleast) read access to it, so that we can
utilise it better.

Let's see.

I have that in mind and there is a check box which asks acc. holders
to mark whether they can make this info available. And policy needs to
be implemented in code.

API should use if(marked_true) return country else raise
someexception. So, it needs a fix.

Ok
