- 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.
