Bug Description

On the follow page:
https://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/dev/account/

You can't change your full name as it is taken for your Ubuntu One Account name.

When I changed my Ubuntu One Account name here:
https://login.ubuntu.com/

My full name was not updated on the Ubuntu developer site so all of my app listing have my personal mail in the creator field.

EDIT: As below, it updates after the next relogin from login.ubuntu.com.

Hi Shane. The myapps site only gets data from login.ubuntu.com when you sign in. I just tested this on staging with:

1) Go to login.staging.ubuntu.com and updated both my full name and preferred email
2) Logged out of both login.staging.ubuntu.com and myapps.developer.staging.ubuntu.com (to ensure I'll be forced to re-authenticate)
3) Logged back in to myapps.developer.staging.ubuntu.com

During the last step, I see my updated full name and email being passed to myapps. Similarly, when I view my /dev/account/ it displays the updated information.

Any published applications of yours will need to be unpublished/republished so that the published records use the new details too.

Let me know if that works around your issue, even if it's not the ideal scenario.

Thanks
