It's jseidel-guest. But do I need to be added to the project? I first
thought "yes of course" as it is required for non distributed systems
such as CVS or Subversion. But isn't Mercurial a distributed system?
To be honest I do not have much experience with distributed systems
(but will learn it quicklywithout doing any harm) since I work mostly
with svn nevertheless I would prefer not to make a own repository
available :-)

PS: Thanks for CC:ing me. I'm not subscribed yet but will change this
soon.
