How to recover an account if a user accidentally delete it?
If it couldn't. The user will register a new account, but
How do you make his contribution constantly?
How do you not make people headache when trying to use the CVS logs?
I don't want to offend you indeed, but just have that questions, :)
and hopefully I could raise a discussion about that in the list to
make everyone be aware of that problem.
Thank you, Sylvain
