To all those people who have been moaning about needing 6-10 people to
administer the system, in my opinion these are the most important reasons to
have more than one person available to help. Python isn't only used in the
USofA. It has been very helpful to have administrators scattered around the
globe who were awake and alert to handle problems with python.org when folks
in the US were asleep. Of course, spreading the load among several people
helps with the other tasks as well.
As Martin pointed out in an earlier post, with only one person actively
administering Subversion (Martin), new requests for access had to wait if he
was away for an extended period of time.
