Transferring ~launchpad-buildd-admins to Launchpad team control

Hi all,

Launchpad has a ~launchpad-buildd-admins team which grants certain 
privileges around changing build scores, adjusting build privileges on 
e.g. PPAs, and administration of the builders themselves.

Because the Launchpad build farm was initially used and maintained 
mainly by Ubuntu, that team is under the Ubuntu hierarchy, owned by 
~techboard. But the build farm now does a lot more than the distro, and 
it's operated by a combination of Canonical's IS and Launchpad teams.

On this basis, the Launchpad team would like the ownership of 
~launchpad-buildd-admins to be transferred to ~commercial-admins, where 
the rest of the Launchpad operational teams live.

We don't necessarily need to remove ~techboard as a member, but it also 
doesn't seem obviously necessary to leave a non-operational team as a 
member of this operations-focused highly privileged team. If individual 
TB members do happen to exercise privileges granted by the team, we're 
happy to look at adding them as direct members.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
William.
