Hi Clint, That did the trick; I actually tried that last night and perhaps github burped at that very instance because nothing happened...figured I'd try it again and it worked, thank you.
I wanted to disassociate them because I was under the impression that with every update, the owner of repro A would be bothered to accept/reject my changes, but I assume this is not the case because A) repro A is read-only and B) I am not a collaborator to repro A am I correct?
