If you don't trust > your devs, who do you trust? ;) Trust is a complex beast, as we are learning exploring security issues. First of all, trust to write and commit code != trust to manage users. That goes for a single person. As I get tired, I trust myself less and less to do various things. Late, late at night I might even close my root terminal so I can't trivially do stupid things. In distributed projects, I would not want to expect all users to be equally competent and knowledgeable about all parts of the system. Anyhow, I'll shut up now. You've probably heard much of this before and, since, I'm not going to step up to the plate to fix things differently, I'll have to trust your wisdom. :-) > > Also, could you kick yourself out of the GeoTools group, please? > > You should be able to delete me without fuss. done > > Any idea what our choices are with regards to our svn.geotools.org > > domain?

These are good reasons to stick with the new svn.osgeo.org. I don't think any of us particularly care about the svn being on the geotools.org domain as long as we have the website. thanks again, --adrian ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SF.Net email is Sponsored by MIX09, March 18-20, 2009 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
