Re: Completing the team transition on Savannah

[EricZolf]

Hi,

well, I recognize people from Sol1 active on this list, so we shouldn't 
need to go through the Savannah processes but could be simply added as 
admins.

But I see also Kevin Fenzi aka nirik on the list, who's AFAIK 
co-maintainer with Frank of the rdiff-backup package on Fedora.
@Frank - do you know him good enough to ask if he could help us out?

Thanks, Eric
