Russel,

I haven't yet heard from Martin on his Melange name.  Do you mind me putting your name down as assistant administrator if by submission time I still haven't heard from Martin (tomorrow or Wednesday).  I assume I will be able to fix that after the fact, but I can't even submit the proposal unless of I have an assistant name, and so far you are the only one signed up on Melange that I know of.

Cheers,

Craig

That is fine. Consider me duly signed up for the role, albeit temporarily.

Russel.  Can you accept my invitation to be adminstrator (perhaps you received and email about this), but who knows, that is the most baffling registration process I've ever been a part of ....

Oh, so its official now - I think - I've submitted our orgnaizational proposal.  I had to copy and paste my beautiful Latex document into a crappy web-form, I am so bitter now.  There is still time to add an idea or two to the Idea's page though ... since I've seen some recent chatter on the forums about GSoC project ideas.

I logged in and now it tells me I am an administrator. So something did something :-)

So, the Google folks told me you had to accept the invitation, but you apparently did nothing other than log in and now the Melange site is telling me our proposal is now complete.  Seems about par for the course.

Anyway, thanks Russel! You've been a great help.  The person from Google said that I should be able to switch administrators, but they did not seem to have any idea on how that would be done, but I will make sure you don't get stuck as admin.

Martin, have you signed up for Melange yet?  To busy with the release stuff maybe :o)

Cheers,
Craig
