How did you manage that? When I go to: http://groups.google.com/group/trac-users I see: You cannot post messages because only members can post, and you are not currently a member. And when I click "Join this group," I end up at https://www.google.com/groups/signin?cd=US&hl=en&login_required=1&_done=http%3A%2F%2Fgroups.google.com%2Fgroup%2Ftrac-users%2Fsubscribe which tells me You must sign in to Google to complete the previous action. So what am I missing? Oooh, I have to be signed out of GMail in order to create a "groups" account with a different email address. Feh, silly me.
