Christian Reis (aka kiko) usually takes care of the red tape associated with
project reassignment. He's away for the moment, but he should be able to take
care of this once he comes back.

Can the conduit and synce teams that I set up be made the owner of the conduit and synce projects?

The beta team application usually goes pretty fast, but again, Mattew Revell
who handles the beta applications is also off-duty this week. I've contacted
Joey Stanford who will proceed with your application.

Thanks Joey, really speedy response :-)

Since PPAs are tied to a person or team, the fact that you don't have admin
access to the conduit and synce projects shouldn't be a problem. You should
be able to proceed to set up a PPA containing the packages for these
projects.

I got a synce team running and after a few false starts i had packages building. Very snazzy. Thank you very much! It's already been very helpful supporting SynCE/Ubuntu users :-)
