Re: [wxCode-users] To all dev: wxCode database

[Francesco M. <f18...@ya...>]

Hi,
    since the HTTP basic authentication was quite ugly; I decided to use 
a pure PHP authentication.
The usernames & passwords of wxCode mantainers are now stored in the 
wxCode 'mantainers' table.

All mantainers should go to
http://wxcode.sourceforge.net/phpMyAdmin/
select the Mantainers table and click "Insert" and then insert their 
name, email, sf user account and password. When inserting this last one, 
click the drop down list "Function" and choose "MD5" so that your 
password will be secured.
(Note: for David Hart & Thomas Monjalon I've already inserted their 
info, before removing them from components, in the table; they just need 
to choose their passwords).

I've completed all pages of wxCode site and now I just need that you all 
update the DB with your info.
I've also already setup roughly the pmwiki for wxcode:
http://wxcode.sourceforge.net/test/wiki

Otto, can I begin to move the site out from the test dir ?
