Oh man, here you go again.  I asked you intially if you were going to be
contributing anything else other than this PUT thing.  You said you
probably wouldn't have time.  For one-off things we don't generally hand
out accounts.  When I tried your patch it didn't work and messing with the
POST handling code is pretty sensitive stuff, so you are right, I wasn't
keen on that bit of code.  Then you went on and on about being
discriminated against to the point where I just stopped reading your
messages.

Huh?  There was no discussion.  There usually isn't on any of these cvs
account decisions.  You just need to be able to convince one of us you
need one and they will set you up.  So back when I didn't give you a cvs
account, neither did anybody else.

Well, we do have some code review.  Evan's code was a bit akward and needs
to be cleaned up before it can go in.
