Maybe my hands aren't tied. Here's what I'm looking for, maybe you can tell me I've already got what I need:
1) Username / password to a system where I can make arbitrary updates to the website. 2) Ability to grant that power to others. 3) Be able to merge pull requests to the git website. 4) Be able to grant that power to others. 5) Be able to pull any git updates into the official repository. 6) Have access to top-level management information, like URLs and access info for all Apache OpenAZ resources. 7) Be able to change that top-level management information. That would be enough as a start. We need some movement, which requires just those things for now. Then when there's movement, I've got at least 3 more people I could bring on to make little tweaks (which is all we really need for a first release). I also know how to use twitter well enough to drum up more hands and feet. But without the power to make things happen (not just commit code to a fork on github, but actually make those merges happen), I'm not getting more people involved. So, do I have this power already and don't know it, or what? On Tue, Apr 19, 2016 at 3:46 PM, John D.
