| Developer Log |
| ============= |
| |
| This file is a running log of developers given permissions on SourceForge. |
| |
| The purpose is to provide some institutional memory of who was given access |
| and why. |
| |
| The first entry starts in April 2005. In keeping with the style of |
| Misc/NEWS, newer entries should be added to the top. Any markup should |
| be in the form of ReST. Entries should include the initials of the |
| project admin who made the change or granted access. Feel free to revise |
| the format to accommodate documentation needs as they arise. |
