[Savannah-hackers] Re: DotGNU Single Login

[David Sugar]

I am not sure this was handled correctly in that we did not yet actually 
designate a maintainer for this, at least as far as I recall.  However, such a 
sub-project had been proposed and discussed on the mailing lists for awhile 
now, and presumably someone simply jumped the gun.  Simply put it on hold for 
now, I need to confirm what the status of this will be and who the actual 
maintainer for this will be.  Richard will of course also have to approve the 
maintainer before this can be activated.

If there are other DotGNU related things that people jump off on like this 
that you do not know the person is already a maintainer or you are in doubt, 
please ask about this as well.  It is good that people are so enthusiastic, 
but if this becomes a problem we could simply establish a filtering policy 
where all such DotGNU related Savannah requests need to come from the steering 
comittee directly.
