If you want a Git account so you can commit to Gtk+, it should be pretty easy. Three steps basically: 1. For the person requesting it: follow http://live.gnome.org/NewAccounts 2. A gtk+ maintainer: approving the Git account 3. Accounts team: setting it up This can all be done very quickly. If for some reason there is a delay in above process, feel free to send me a message. If you think it is better to have other resources (mailing list), just file a bug at Bugzilla, for details see http://live.gnome.org/NewListRequest. Best to get started with the Git account first. Above and other infrastructure procedures are documented at: http://live.gnome.org/Infrastructure Note that I don't see a Gtk+ OSX backend as any different from Gtk+. IMO you could use a branch in gtk+ or commit directly. However, I'm not a maintainer, talk to them. If you need anything Bugzilla related, file a bug in the bugzilla.gnome.org product. Need permissions? Contact Bugsquad. In all above cases (except Gtk+ maintainership ;), if you need assistance, feel free to contact me. -- Regards, Olav (GNOME sysadmin, bugzilla maintainer) _______________________________________________ gtk-devel-list mailing list gtk-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-devel-list
