"http://rubygems.org/gems/sitemap_generator">http://rubygems.org/gems/sitemap_generator</a>
lists 'dpicket' as an owner. I've never added him as an owner as I
am the sole maintainer of the gem and Adam Salter (the other owner)
passed away over a year ago, so I know it wasn't him who added
him.</p>
<p>How did this person become an owner? I'd remove him but then he
could just re-add himself.</p>
<p>I've read the owner docs at <a href=
"https://rubygems.org/pages/gem_docs#owner">https://rubygems.org/pages/gem_docs#owner</a>
but I am unclear how authentication/authorization works for this
command.</p>
<p>Any help would be appreciated.</p>
<p>Thanks,<br>

<p>dpicket is listed as an Owner of the gem but I don't know who
this person is. How can I remove him as an owner? (And how did he
add himself??)</p></div>Karl Vargatag:help.rubygems.org,2010-01-19:Comment/49980242011-03-17T15:38:40Z2011-03-17T15:38:40Zsomeone has acquired ownership of a gem without my permission<div><p>Looks like this has been taken care of.</p>
<p>Dan must have pushed the gem on his own early in Gemcutter's
life, he was one of the first users to help me out. :) Glad this
has been worked out.</p></div>Nick Quaranto
