Yes, I know. Linus Tolke also have "main" user access to the servers, databases, domain configuration, etc. If something happen to me and I won't be able to maintain that website, he (or any person he choose) can keep argouml-users site running. > 2.

One solution i can see (don't known if this is best solution for argouml project, but...) is to use dedicated server(s), e.g. https://home.pl/dedicated (it is only example, I don't know any foreign dedicated server hostings, and can't tell which are good or bad), merge argouml and argouml subproject websites into one. Move merged website and svn repositories from tigris.org to own server with subversion, user-friendly bug-tracker (like "Redmine": http://www.redmine.org/ ), wiki, forums etc. Eclipse is probably using such solution. With dedicated server(s) we will have much more control on websites/repositories etc. -- best regards, Lukasz --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
