Re: [ppa-users] Future plans

Francisco,

I may have mis-understood what you were requesting.  Were you wanting to 
simply read documentation on the new version, or did you want developer access 
to the cvs?

If it's the documentation, we can't help you... there isn't much information 
regaurding the new version other than some emails intersperced in the -devel 
mailing list.

If you want developer access to the cvs, then I would hope that all projects 
require some type of evidence that you are a capable developer before allowing 
access into the cvs.  This is a completely normal and sane requirement prior 
to allowing developer access.  I don't think I've ever been part of an open-
source project where some type of contribution to the product was the key to 
being granted access into the code.

If you have something to contribute to the project or have a list of other 
projects in which you have been involved, then we would be happy to have you 
aboard.  But until we know that, there is no real point.
