I wonder whether it is possible to use a fedoraproject.org email alias in bugzilla without decoupling it from FAS?
The connection between a bugzilla account and a Fedora account is based on the primary email address in FAS, right? So, if I update my bugzilla preferences to use the fedoraproject mail alias, does that disconnect my bugzilla account from FAS?

Yeah, bugzilla permissions are synced based on the FAS email. I think Toshio maintains a list of exceptions to this rule in python-fedora, which is how some people use a different email address. Eventually, it'd be nice to have a BZ email field in FAS, though.
Thanks, Ricky

Yep. Michael, let me know if you want to do this and I'll set up the FAS side.
We eventually need to have a FAS plugin that allows saving a separate email address as your bugzilla email and having the bugzilla sync script use that value if it's available.

Yes. if you use the @fedoraproject.org alias you will lose all of your privileges in bugzilla.
