I don't know how their tracker works. The SF project I am involved with has also an "issue" list that forwards _all_ the tracker registered items to list members. If their list works the same way, then it is worth trying, if not is it not going to be easy to catch anonymous contributors. > They can also contribute directly via the trackers, and the SF login > is optional.

Commit access follows shortly after. And that could be a gardener's job to help with that process if the CLCB people accept new CVS committers. > To this end I amended _(Gardeners_Projects), > > | Seedlings & Wildflowers: Unchampioned Projects > | [...] > | * Lisp Examples > | Perhaps The >>Common Lisp Cookbook<< is the best place for this > | work.

Still, considering the CLCB activity level I would not think only pointing at the right link will be enough to kick the project back to life (from semi-hibernation :) Jean-Christophe Helary _______________________________________________ Gardeners mailing list [email protected] http://www.lispniks.com/mailman/listinfo/gardeners
