Yep.  This is because when the ownership data was imported there were 
people who still hadn't signed up for cvsextras like they were supposed 
to.  Since then, I've plugged holes in the pkgdb checks that keep people 
who haven't signed up for cvsextras from getting acls where they aren't 
supposed to which led to some packages having errors in this round of 
mass branching.  My apologies, I should have stripped those people out 
of the data on initial import instead of assuming they were just being 
slow to finish the merge process.

To fix your particular problem, you need to decide what to do about the 
following lvm team members:

mauelsha Heinz Mauelshagen -- !!Very important!! Needs to have cla_done 
and cvsextras before he can be allowed to commit.

These people only need cvsextras
sct Stephen Tweedie
dwysocha Dave Wysochanski

Once you get these people sign up for the right accounts I can rebranch 
lvm2, device-mapper, device-mapper-multipath, and dmraid in the pkgdb 
and the acls will duplicate what's in devel.

Alternately, you can have me remove those people from the acls for these 
packages and I can then rebranch the permissions at that point.
