I belive I was given Admin access myself. Unfornutatly I lost my sourceforge password a very long time ago and have since given up on their system ever giving my my password.
Hi Doug,
According to the member list (http://sourceforge.net/project/memberlist.php?group_id=5757), you are a developer - not an admin.
Well, as I said, he has no role listed. ^^ I don't know if it's because they added the role field some time after he joined the group, or if the SF system is just messed up and missing values for the role column of the row that contains the user name "doug_melvin". Technically the role is a [space] character, if you view source.
But you're still ahead of me. I did once ask for developer access but never received a reply. :(
Well, I guess the first order of business is to find someone (or preferably 2-3 people) to become an active admins. If any admin are out there and reading this list, just please make me an admin and shoot a quick note to me. Over the years, I haven't contributed much code, but have contributed chatter on the lists, and though I've had the ability to really foul up the CVS (by ignorance or malice), I am happy to say I haven't done so.
I think the second order of business would be to make a backup of the site. I should probably be able to do some of this as a developer, using scp (or pscp in windows). But we should have at the least some sort of schedul to archive the site and the CVS tree. If we go giving some new admins access, and something gets messed up, it'll be nice to have a backup. I did take a CVS snapshot of all modules some weeks ago. But all the revision stuff probably needs archiving. All this admin crap that is common to any project but little to do with the specifics of the project, I could try and work on that while I get back into the code here.
Hmm, third order of business is to make my living will, and among other things, specify instructions to turn over the admin rights and backups to the other admin in the event of an untimely demise or even temporary injury or illness. ;-)
