Nevermind, I think I know what happened. When I transferred ownership of
the repository to the kde-developers group gitorious deleted me from the
list of collaborators completely and it didn't set the admin flag for
kde-developers either (as they were already in the list with just the
commit-flag). Hence I've locked out myself, not a big deal though as I
had foreseen these kind of issues (or rather heard of that before) and two
other project members are still admins.

But I do have to wonder wether I'm the only one who thinks this is a bug in
gitorious?
