Thats a valid reason to have an account
try rsbultje on ffmpeg.org
your git ssh key should work to authenticate
see /home/* for who has an account
and /etc/group for who is in samples
i just now noticed some people who recently got accounts where forgotten to be
added top samples.
you can now monitor exactly who has accounts and who is in samples.
Ask them, make it public, remind me if i forget adding someone to samlpes
which it seems i have severl times. Its quite easy to forget a
adduser user samples
so if i had to maintain a public list, that list would never be reliable
i would keep forgetting either adding people to it or add people and then
forget actually opening their account :)

the roots should be listed in MAINTAINERs
in addition ubitux, tim nicholochson, roberto togni and thresh seem to have
access too. I dont know why they are not listed in MAINTAINERs, maybe they
removed themselfs, or wheer never added ...

thx

If you think the mosad wants you dead since a long time then you are either
wrong or dead since a long time.
