Status on that is this:
1. Monday is a holiday
2. Sometime next week I hope/plan to drive my server back to its
"co-located home"
3. Test detonate my Scarab installing on it (appreciate here that I'm
taking more care not to screw
Well said.
I subscribe to this.
We should remember that people that contribute so much should be proposed as
committers, regardless to the code submitted, as is done AFAIK in POI,
Struts, Cocoon, Forrest, Avalon, and the Krysalis projects (that refer to
Apache guidelines).

are indicated as "emeritus". Everyone who has contributed to the code
and documentation are credited as equals.

Total and complete agreement.
So is there an interest in one day migrating to subversion? I don't
think its *ready* yet but I've always wanted to try it. I never have,
because I thought "well I'd like to try a lot of things but as long as I
won't be able to use it most places whats the point". A tentative yes

I like this, I think it is needed, as it should help to extend the
experience and knowledge of the community by acknowledging the services of
non-coders.
I believe, though, that as sub-projects grow we will eventually need to
address the issue of scope, but in the meantime this would be an
