Thanks for the reminder!

I don't know what'll happen when I try to fork this after you've forked it from 
jenkinsci (despite it being unrelated in functionality). Since the UI doesn't 
allow it to be forked, I fear for the original repo...

Could you delete your repo (keeping your source code of course) and create a 
new one from scratch so it's no longer related to jenkinsci/greenballs-plugin? 
You don't have history anyway, so starting with the current code state as 
'initial commit' wouldn't be a big issue I think.
