Riyad here makes some really good points. I've already made a clone on Gitorious, and frankly, I like their interface better (it makes it easier to ask for revisions when making merge requests). Also, I'm not very good with PHP, does anyone want to take over handling the website completely? I haven't updated it in ages. And Sébastien, is it OK if I give someone else FTP access to the site? -- Kelvie Wong ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
