You are correct that anyone who has made contributions is considered a developer. Refer to the Ant Project Bylaws for the official word on developer vs. committer vs. PMC member: http://ant.apache.org/bylaws.html#Developers As for your testing the ClearCase changes, I understand Steve's comments on that bug to say (and I have said something similar to a user about running the startup scripts on an obscure shell) that if we get a submission that compiles, for something we can't test, we can assume it works if the community reports that as being the case. It can then be added to an existing optional task. Note that this is exactly the kind of situation that explains why we are loath to add more optional tasks to Ant. -Matt > > -Rob Anderson __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
