It's true, I've been involved with openslp historically but I've have never had 
commit rights.  Matthew Hird is part of our larger company but is at another 
site in some other business unit.

Cheers

Hi John. I don't think any of us here do. The person you might be remembering

Hi Richard,

Thanks so much for all the work you've done. Don't take this wrong, but
don't you have an employee there at Thales that has commit rights to our
repo? Matthew Hird, I believe. Or has he left the company? Just curious.

Thanks,
John Calcote
