If you're included in the list of developers in the SF project page, you
should have access.  Although I'm the file owner, the full permissions
are

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/xdoclet/htdocs$ ls -ld repository/
drwxrwsr-x    5 stevensa xdoclet      4096 Apr 24  2004 repository/

i.e. the group setting is 'xdoclet' and the directory is group writeable
(and the SGID flag is set, so any new files that are created should
automatically get set to the 'xdoclet' group as well).  Group membership
on the SF shell & web servers is determined by the developers list in
the project, so you should be okay.  As for the plugins directory,

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/xdoclet/htdocs/repository/xdoclet$ ls -l
total 8
drwxrwsr-x    2 stevensa xdoclet      4096 Nov 15 15:04 jars
drwxrwsr-x    2 pilhuhn  xdoclet      4096 Jul 23 13:02 plugins

I'm not the owner of that one, but it's still writeable to anyone in the
xdoclet group.

I did notice, however, that the /repository/xdoclet/jars directory
contains a lot of files owned by yourself and Heiko which aren't group
writeable (permissions are -rw-r--r--) and, in the case of Heiko's jars,
have the group set to 'users' not 'xdoclet'.  I'm not too sure how that
happened, as the jars directory is also SGID; perhaps they were moved
there from some other directory which wasn't.  Please can the pair of
you do a 'chmod g+w' and/or 'chgrp xdoclet' on the files as appropriate,
so the rest of us could update them in future if necessary?  Also, I
tried to remove the executable permission from the maven plugin jar but
it wouldn't let me, presumably since I'm not the owner.


Andrew.
