My intention was to document only the mechanics involved in the process and sidestep the permission discussion as much as possible. Frankly, I have no experience in joining/leaving projects. I understand that some projects are happy with people just adding themselves without permission whereas others, like the security team, are stricter with their requirements. Either way, the wiki will need to be modified and possibly the alias file too. Maybe we are better off without the last sentence, so it's less controversial? - -- gokturk -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEcBAEBCgAGBQJXCSDrAAoJEIT4AuXAiM4zTgkIAJpoyFylEAaYzpZLiBoNw/UD AiBpbaJUtwtfgrIs11PCKORJfsJXRd4WxuNdh05NWxsmKRht1IESoE9RokCT2eQA NbS/GUS6r7DZEifBjAtIbgykhvzWGgq4uybxUaktp9tOn+t+/zg3rvh/1316udTR R4eXB5n9YumUrLuvVdbeQUz/bxJ1/0mKyebrKpeci+brDPjO7xpXV2xfRimZ9msP 9R2ceDzMlEYX0V1kwe/Q+Zc9fnGw+C0Z8FXZf9fgbr/bjYDL3ROPQSvjIyiVq9zF 8aCbMIS5+ZvwbkhJJ3mnChiCkH1pujMiqlgr3dqi1XdbMjL/rsphElorQt5pbSc= =xz02 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
