I have to heartily agree with Ben here. One of the top rules for a developer is this: Let them do their job.
Right now, I see that this rule is being broken by the powers-that-be at Mandrake. Stew doesn't need the world, he just needs his part. He should be able to have all necessary abilities to maintain the PPC codebase for Mandrake's distribution, including full access to file upload and download areas, ability to add/remove/change files in the distribution, anything that any developer of any distribution would need to do. Stew is an extremely capable developer, and has the potential to put together a top-notch distribution. If only he could get access to the tools he so desperately needs. Let the man do his job, dammit. Oh, and as soon as my next paycheck comes in, I'm putting a tip in the Mandrake/PowerPC port jar on the website.
