This is indeed currently the case, but I don't like the situation better than anyone else. In fact, things have been different for a while; for example, Dan Harkless was co-developer for a while. The patch mailing list and the patch review process were designed to be simple and to get other people to join. And some people did indeed join, but most have left for other obligations -- Dan Harkless, Ian Abbott, Jan Prikryl. Granting write access to CVS is easy, at least for those who willing to assign copyright to the FSF. However, the GNU project requires a person to be the official maintainer. In my absence the person who would coordinate releases should also talk to Richard Stallman and see that he is accepted as the project coordinator, which can post releases to ftp.gnu.org. If someone (presumably a person who has submitted patches, is willing to assign them, and understands the code) is willing to do this, please follow up. Don't forget to Cc [EMAIL PROTECTED]
