 create new accounts for all the contributors and then give them
 access?

 Just to be clear, this has nothing to do with accounts on github, or
 any registered thing. This is *only* about username/email as recognized
 by git itself (as recorded in the commit objects).
 
 Actually - isn't it better if people do give you their github username /
 email combo - assuming that's the easiest combo to work with later?

I think the Github user name is not really needed here, as what goes into 
the history is the Git ID: name + email address.

 Sorry to interrupt, but do you have a usable, up to date cloneable git
 repository somewhere? I noticed that you had a repository on github, but
 it's about a month out of date.  I understand if what you're working on
 isn't ready to be cloned from yet.  In the meantime I can use git-svn,
 but I figured if you had something better, I'd use that.

Hi,

Yes, sorry, of course you're right, the 'name' is nothing to do with
the github username.  I guess we do need to send the Git ID we like to
use though (in my case Matthew Brett matthew.br...@gmail.com).

See you,

Matthew
