You can often find someone with root perms hanging out on #asfinfra on
irc.freenode.net, or can email [EMAIL PROTECTED] to ask for perms to be
reset to 664 as they were -supposed- to be in the first place.
Do email the owners to beg them to fix their umask. I recommend that
instead of your .profile/.bash_profile, you fix them in your .bashrc and
.cshrc files, so that scp picks them up by default when depositing files
via scp. umask 002 is all you are looking for to ensure 664 ownership.
We fixed it bilateral, no need to escalate.
Things like this often happen, when you use archives to transfer your
files to p.a.o. Another reason is, that my fingers have a builtin "-p"
when I do cp or scp. Then the umask unfortunately doesn't help. Of
course we all know, how to handle this, but it can break relatively easy.

Rainer
