What would be good is if you sent an email to support at osuosl.org and
worked on this with the admins...yes, it would be brilliant to help with
these admin tasks...

Sending an email to that email above starts a new ticket...you should
mention that you are admin on this project and that I worked on this
prob. previously...

osuosl only wants to set cronjobs, so you need to send to them the
command and frequency, etc., cool?

Then, test, and see how it went through...cool? Is this okay?
