someone to create branches for 1.2.1 and 1.3.0.
The entire Deimos system would be served better by a simple page
on the Wiki, not shoehorning it into a Github organization. The
current procedure is outright ridiculous. Walter has *nothing* to
do with these projects and a Wiki page is much more customizable
than a Github organization (which is not saying anything bad
about Github organizations; just that Deimos is gross misuse of
them).
I know a lot of people share this opinion but I haven't seen it
on the NG, so here it is.
