Sean,
Ok then give me access permission to add repositories in /petsc and change
permissions on repositories in /petsc (i.e. give me the same permissions as the
owner: petsc) using my bitbucket password and NOT openID.
You claimed earlier that you could only do that through my openid and that
you had to "come to the lab to do it". Now that's fucked up.
