You still don't need to apply for your own Alioth project - you can use the collab-maint project on Alioth, which is a generic place to maintain random packages in a VCS (they have all the repositories - svn, git, bzr, etc.). All Debian Developers have access to collab-maint automatically, and non-DDs just need to ask for their -guest account to be added to the project. I maintain gtimelog in a collab-maint bzr repository, and have done so since before I was a DD (my -guest account was added to the collab-maint ACL within a day of me asking). http://wiki.debian.org/Alioth/FAQ#head-5b82616bf8b6417a3a5c389d3436fc444fad6ccc Simon -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iD8DBQFIEEulWSc8zVUw7HYRAsfQAJ0QbBv6rXFTn5VfmwoGC2+ijEhxOwCfZk8d b66HybWFFk4zQcb5OMgjshs= =b516 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
