Ok, Gaute, I've added you as an admin of the Rubyforge page, and admin
of the Gitorious project, and as an owner of the gem. Let me know if for
some reason I've screwed any of that up. Rubyforge adminship should
allow you to change the contents of sup.rubyforge.org and administer the
mailing lists.

The freenode channel was set up by someone else... I don't remember who.
I only used it once.

Let me know what else I can do.

Hi William,

It's a sad thing you do not have time to spare on a project in which
you have put so much attention. Don't worry, we will take good care of
your code for you =]

I don't have much to add to the discussion, just a big thank you for
sup, heliotrope and the other gems (haha !) you have come up with.
Sometimes I wish other projects would read your code and take some
inspiration of the readability you have.

Anyway, see you around !

Is #sup @ freenode something that is in sup control? Not very important perhaps, but just to make sure it doesnt get spammed..

Ah, I thought maybe you had more control over the wiki. Now we have
access to rubyforge I've opened a support request about it -

Fingers crossed ...

Hello William

Life happens.

As to who - Gaute Hope appears to have been the most active in the
recent renaissance, so I would definitely give him access. Then as we
sort ourselves out Gaute can give others access. (Not that I'd oppose
others, but it would be good to get at least one person on quickly).

Hi William,

Thanks, this looks good. I will add Hamish and Matthieu as
administrators as well.
