It automates the creation of management/commiter teams, a -dev mailing list, the project itself, and a bzr branch for trunk. ## OPTIONS Listed below are the possible commands that can be passed to **lp-project**: - **help commands** List all supported commands - **create \<*projectname*\>** Create a project. This creates two teams - a management/committer team owner by you and a -dev mailing list owned by the mgmt team. It then creates the project, makes it owned by the committer team, creates a new empty bzr branch for trunk and then fires up a web browser pointing at the project for you to fine tune. After running this command you need to set what LP features you are using (https://bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad/+bug/537269), describe your project (title, summary, description), upload your code to lp:PROJECT, and turn on the mailing list by hand (https://bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad/+bug/537258) ## AUTHORS **lp-project** was written by Robert Collins \, and this manual page was written by Nathan Handler \.
