Nathaniel,

Thank you. I'll look into turning off the robo-commits. Are we able to use
any Google hosted e-mail domains? The e-mail domain "motorola.com" is
maintained by Google so is there any way to use [username]@motorola.com as
Members of the project or must the domain be "gmail.com"?

Thanks,
Ken
