Thanks Ramsey!
And another update.
Confluence setup is ready, but I hit a snag getting an evaluation
license, as our old Confluence instance has no "Server ID". Now
waiting for Atlassian support to wake up in Australia and help me out.
I just created the first batch of SVN accounts, so anjo, uli, mschra,
hprange will get their passwords in email soon.
Here is the list of remaining committers:
bob_schwarzmann Bob Schwarzmann
dlee Daryl Lee
hn3000 Harald Niesche
jcollas Juan J. Collas
ldeck Lachlan Deck
qdolan Quinton Dolan
ssahuc Sebastien Sahuc
Please email me ether privately or to the list if you are in this list
and would like to preserve access. Not wanting to exclude anybody
from the fun, just trying to keep it tight (especially considering the
password distribution medium).
Cheers,
Andrus
