That web page explicitly says: "Note that if you already have an account on sourceware.org or gcc.gnu.org for CVS write access, then do not use this form. Instead send an email to the overseers mail account at this site telling what project you want write access to and who approved that access." Similarly, the top level page (http://sources.redhat.com/) says: "If, in the future, you want to contribute to the cvs repository of another project (remember that gcc.gnu.org and sources.redhat.com share projects), have a responsible party send email to the overseers mailing list at this site requesting that you be added to the project. Do not fill this form out again." So I wonder whether both pages are out of date then... Thanks again, Jan >>> Nick Clifton 03.11.04 12:43:36 >>> Hi Jan, > Since I already have an account (for gcc), I understand that all I have > to do is to send the request to this mailing list. Please anyone let me > know it that is insufficient. Sorry, but it is insufficient. The binutils and gcc projects use different CVS repositories located on different machines, so it is not just a case of adding your name to some kind of permissions file. Instead if you follow the link that Alan posted: > http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/pdw/ps_form.cgi ...and fill in the form their we should be able to give you write access to the binutils repository. You can use Alan's email address or mine as the approver of this request. Cheers Nick
