Alex seems to have troubles communicating in English. Let's wait a bit more, see how things go on before asking for radical measures. The good thing with version control is that we can keep tracks of successive versions. If any *serious* problem arises, we can just revert the change. Don't you think so? 2009/6/11 Francesco Cosoleto <cosoleto(a)gmail.com>om>: -- Nicolas Dumazet — NicDumZ [ nɪk.d̪ymz ]

This means access is shared between the pywikipediabot, mysql and mediawiki repositories. alexsh needs access to the mediawiki repos for localisation: http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/mediawiki-cvs/2009-May/072084.html For now, I suggest we wait for a reaction from alexsh. If there is no reaction within, say, a week, we might notify Brion of the communication problems. @alexsh: Please read replies to your svn commits. You have been making some rather large commits that have unrelated changes in them. Try to make commits 'atomic': they should only change one issue at a time. This makes it a) possible to check for bugs by just looking at the code and b) possible to narrow down problems to one commit. -Merlijn/valhallasw
