Ahh, thanks. Didn't know where to find it and didn't think to "sneak
around," although, after doing the URL hacking, it seems now that it's
much easier than I thought without sneaking.

For the archives: I just went from the "Next Steps:" page directly to
github.com/<account>/<repo>/edit and added my personal account as a
collaborator. After doing this, I realized that the "edit" button was
live on the "Next Steps" page anyway! So you can immediately edit the
repo, pre-stub, and add collaborators, then access from the personal
account. I love it.

Once again, when I think something is frustrating and time consuming,
you GitHub hacks prove me wrong :) You guys rock my world.

Thanks,
-J
