Canceling authorization prevents future registration

[droidmonkey]

When registering a team the GitHub authorization process kicks in. In my organization (keepassxreboot) we do not allow apps to auto-register so they must be explicitly authorized. I was not ready to make that commitment and canceled the authorization process. However, now the KeePassXC team is in a half-registered state and I cannot link it with my actual account anymore (https://liberapay.com/keepassxc/).

1. Request the KeePassXC team be reset

2. This bug needs to be fixed or some alternate way to claim a team.

I don't understand the problem. As of now the GitHub organization "keepassxreboot" is connected to the "keepassxc" Liberapay account, which seems to be what you wanted.

I realized that the authorization emails for the account all went to the spam folder. Good to go on registration.

However, how do i add team members? The UI is not very easy to work around.

You can't add members because you created an organization account, not a team account.

Transforming an organization account into a team is currently not supported.

Is there an explanation of what the point of organizations is?

[Changaco]

Organization accounts are for businesses and nonprofits. In the future they will be able to have members (#1107), reimburse expenses (#505), and act as fiscal sponsors for teams (#1108).

The whole process is wanting for some clarity. Having never used your platform before, it would seem I royally messed everything up and doesn't look like I can fix it. The name KeePassXC is "claimed" erroneously by an organization account even though I wanted to claim it as a team. Can you just blow it all up on the backend so I can try again?

IMO, never implement a feature that the user cannot undo or correct. It adds unnecessary burden on your support team.

@droidmonkey I have transformed https://liberapay.com/keepassxc into a team. To invite others to join log in to your personal account then go to https://liberapay.com/keepassxc/edit/members.

Thank you works perfectly
