Welcome! What stuff do you expect you'll be working on?
(I could ask you in person, since we are having our
everyone-in-the-office week, but other people are probably curious too.)
As volunteer development coordinator, I gotta be able to know what it's
like to commit to our repo, so I can knowledgably advise others, suggest
improvements, and so on. Thus I have commit access. Also, I (like
Chad) now have the technical ability to give SVN commit access to other
people, so of course this means that I could give myself commit access
even if I didn't have it. Therefore, in the interests of pedantic
correctness, the historical record, and transparency, I felt I should
add myself to this new committer list. However, I find it unlikely that
I will make substantive code contributions; rather, I'll be working on
the process.
That said, if you find a reeeeally easy CSS or Javascript bug, toss it
to me and I'll try it? :)
