So would you be willing to grant Amir developer access provided that he
sends you the necessary information? He is a very valuable developer
on Project Looking Glass and he has always exhibited a high level of
responsibility and professionalism in all of my interactions with him.

My understanding is that Kevin Martin is no longer performing this
function. Amir sent mail to him and never got any response. And Stuart
doesn't have the necessary permissions to do it.

The mailing list was just a suggestion. If you can work out something
better that would be great.
