Those backups include security sensitive stuff like password hashes, logincookies and private bugs.

When someone decides this is a good idea (suggest to let the board decide), giving the required info is the easy part. However, suggest beforehand to have them sign a NDA (not to reveal personal data). Plus have GNOME review any outcome beforehand. IIRC this is the way Mozilla handles with such requests. -- Regards, Olav _______________________________________________ foundation-list mailing list foundation-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-list
