Last year I contacted Petr Baudis about putting announcement on repo.or.cz, IIRC J.H. 'Warthog9' about git.kernel.org, and appropriate admins for GitHub and Gitorious. Last year Sourceforge didn't have, I think, support for git; do you know who to contact about putting announcement there? I tried also to contact Assembla and Unfuddle, without success. I can try again to contact LWN.net; what other places we can put announcement? -- Jakub Narebski Poland -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
