I think that, from previous e-mail thread to the incubator list, we could offer edit rights to people that wants to contribute to the website and have a CLA on file with ASF [1] [1] http://www.mail-archive.com/general%40incubator.apache.org/msg14391.html On 7/3/07, ant elder <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
