</span>Ok, great! I'll ping you when I get patches in.<br>
<br>
However, I will note that the push process isn't working for some pages<br>
on the website. 11.0.1 was released in September 2015 (when I would<br>
expect you to do an update). You pushed a commit in 2013 to remove<br>
references to CVS (commit dbbe108951 "docs: replace CVS with git"), but<br>
that change is still not reflected here:<br>

The license page seems particularly important to have up-to-date on the<br>
website, since the text changed from "IN NO EVENT SHALL BRIAN PAUL BE<br>
LIABLE" to "IN NO EVENT SHALL THE AUTHORS OR COPYRIGHT HOLDERS BE<br>
LIABLE".<br>
<br>
Pages that people would generally check often (index.html,<br>
relnotes.html) all seem to get updated. There are also less-frequently<br>
updated pages like shading.html that are up-to-date. It's a bit of<br>
a mystery to me why the other pages aren't being updated.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Just an oversight.<br><br> <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

</span>Completely understandable. I have done a couple of commits to Mesa and<br>
piglit, and I do have git repo access under the username 'sarah'.<br>
I haven't pushed my own branches yet, as the patches are still being<br>
tested internally, but I will be having someone else to push my initial<br>
patches after they get mailing list review. I understand if you want to<br>
wait a while for me to prove myself before you grant me additional<br>
trusted privileges. :)<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Yeah, I'm sure it won't take you long...<br></div><div><br>-Brian<br><br></div></div></div></div>
