Re: [Savannah-hackers-public] Re: savannah shell access?

[Sylvain Beucler]

Since the other hackers are currently busy, I granted you access to
address@hidden

Please fill in contact information in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys.

Use
 vserver cvs enter
 cd /srv/git/
to start working.

Edit ~/ChangeLog after a work session.

Ask address@hidden or address@hidden
whenever needed :)
