Bug Description

Blueprint allows us to add a team as a subscriber to a specification. But it is then impossible to UNSUBSCRIBE the team from that specification.

 1. Visit a spec.
 2. Select "Subscribe Someone" from the Actions Menu
 3. Make a team (not an important team :-)) a subscriber
 4. Now try to unsubscribe that team...

(For the Bugs equivalent, see bug 633.)

This was recently fixed in Malone too so you might be able to reuse or cargo
cult the screens.

It's also not possible for a user to unsubscribe another user from a specification.

After a discussion with Mark Shuttleworth and Francis Lacoste, we feel that the best solution to this bug requires more than a simple bug fix.

For example, one solution could be to add a page that lists subscriptions of users and groups, allowing the user to select one or more subscribers for removal.

I've created the following blueprint to capture our thoughts:

Hey, we're tracking ~canonical-mobile specs by subscribing the team to the spec after the sprint; this gets us nice blueprints.l.n/~canonical-mobile pages. However the lack on unsubscription is a pain.

(Could someone comment why the priority was reset to Low?)

Thanks,

No developers are assigned to work on the blueprint application. None have been for 18 months. It is wrong to imply someone will work on this when clearly no one has or will.

Ask a question to at https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+addquestion and an admin someone will perform DB surgery to unsubscribe an unwanted person/team.
