To obtain commit access, you will need to demonstrate you are
serious by submitting a few good patches first. Then, you will need to
select a user-name to use when committing stuff, and finally, you will
need to either send me a crypted password, which you will use to connect
to the system, or send me an ssh key.
To create a crypted password, you can do something like the following (and
please remember to change your password to something other then<em>foo</em>!):
<pre>
$ PASSWORD=foo perl -e 'srand ; @salt=(a..z,A..Z,0..9); \
print crypt($ENV{PASSWORD}, $salt[rand(62)].$salt[rand(62)]), "\n";'

</pre>
If you'd like to use MD5 passwords instead, try something like the following:
<pre>
$ PASSWORD=foo perl -e 'srand ; @salt=(a..z,A..Z,0..9); \
print crypt($ENV{PASSWORD}, "\$1\$".$salt[rand(62)].$salt[rand(62)]), "\n";'
<b>$1$Kp$rBBvl5cuAeJjJ6U1hCqpU1</b>
</pre>
Then I take your crypted password as is (i.e., the output of either of
these commands), drop it into the cvs password file, and you are set to
go.
need to send me the username you have selected, an ssh key, and the email
address where you prefer email to be sent (I will forward any email sent
to you, but not store it).
<p>
Note that if your are really worried that others might see your crypted
password, or your ssh key, you can encrypt the email containing your
crypted password using my <a href="http://www.codepoet.org/~andersen/erik/gpg.asc">public key</a>.

I've personally tested this release out
on x86, ARM, and powerpc using glibc 2.2.4, libc5, and uClibc, so
it should work with just about any Linux system you throw it at.
