None of us that are working on the advocacy site object to having the site in the cvs tree, as it would be easier to get people to work with us on it. The real problem quite simply is this. Neither Jim Mock or myself have access to freefall so then to make a change to the site we would have to bug/harrass somebody with commit priviliges to get it done. Neither Jim or I would be happy with such an arrangement. So if somebody finally wants to break down and give Jim access to freefall, come on I know you guys gotta be getting tired of updating his ports .. blatant plug for jim perhaps we could do this and end this discussion about it.
