To add to this: The purpose of my request to remove your info after merging it into contributors.xml is the following: In 2 weeks or so, I'll bulk-merge the remaining info into contributors.xml; and I will do a cursory review of each item. By removing your already-merged data from the source, you'll save me the time to check which of the information (in contributors.xml or Trac) is more current. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
