I see your request ticket that you filed last week on the 2nd for
noalyss.  I somehow missed your original ticket that you filed on the
15th but see it now.  Apologies for missing that original one.

Yes.  That is one of the standard features.  I can set this up for you
and will do so.

At the present time the way to do this is exactly as you have done.
It is to request it through either by emali to the savannah mailing
list or by submitting a request.  You did all of the right things.
And when it timed out you also did the right thing to write to the
list asking about it.

Many apologies for the long delay in getting a response.  For my part
I don't know how I missed seeing your ticket from the 15th.  I was
thinking the one from the 2nd wasn't so bad.  A couple of days while
the rest of us are offline.  And then I saw you had originated the
request on the 15th of last month.  Ugh.  How did that slip through?
The one from the 2nd is simply an unfortunate convergence of a lack of
recent time.  Savannah is perennially short of volunteer resources.
Normally it isn't quite so bad.  Sometimes everyone is online and
things happen quickly.  Sometimes everyone is offline doing other
things and there just isn't a volunteer around at the time.  In any
case it was way too long in your case.  Sorry about that.

I will set up the commit email for you.  I will let you know when it
is done.
