We could each update our entries. The question is about how much detail should we provide.

weird, I updated my info in content/about.dat but I cannot commit. It says "cvs [server aborted]: "commit" requires write access to the repository".

I logged on exult.sf.net, cruised to the right place (content/about.dat), edited the file and typed
$ cvs commit about.dat

Don't edit files there directly. Checkout the web module locally and commit from there.

Okay, mine is updated.

When I did an "update.sh" in the 'htdocs' directory, I noticed that there are some locally-modified files. Should those be committed? Or tossed?
