Re: Bug repository UPLOADED!

[Mats Bengtsson]

Great!

I suggest to add some information on the procedures also, unless you
want to be the only one to handle these files. If I find a bug, could
I just upload the file to CVS (I have CVS access) or should I send it to
bug-lilypond first, or ...?
Same goes for status changes, when somebody with CVS access thinks he
has fixed a bug.
