Thanks, Jim!! Apparently on this different machine I can access the page even directly with the link. BTW, what does the "User:Jhall1" imply? I would apparently say that you have created a topic called "jjall1", but I am intrigued about the "User" stuff... Aitor 2009/2/24 Jim Hall : > On Mon, Fe

Rather than try to capture all these notes in emails to the mailing list, I'll put them in the Wiki. Makes more sense, and future webmasters will have a handy reference (and a place to update documentation.) -- ___

Eric asked who has access to the project resources at SF, and the web site. So here's a complete list of project people at SF: AITOR is a project admin on SF, so can add members, change developers' roles, etc. - can update CVS (not that we use it, but it's historical) - can update Subversion - ca
