Sorry if I'm bending the topic a bit, but until we find a consensus on a
new solution, we need to move forward with what we have.
The promotion scripts need to access the images server, to update the
links. We're currently using the uploader user, but have no access.
Can someone add a key we created on the promotion server to allow such
access ?

Thanks.
