I'm not really worried about it. Sounds like ongoing pain is pretty much limited to keeping committer accounts/credentials up to date, and that normal good backup procedures will deal with filesystem-SVN state as a matter of course. If there's one thing sysadmins love to do, it's fiddling with user accounts and credentials -- if _anyone_ volunteers to work on python.org, they'll be eager to lord this power over us <wink>. If not, that's fine too. The PSF has the funds and the mission to pay for infrastructure support; I'd just _rather_ spend PSF funds on "more glamorous" stuff (like grants and conferences). _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
