<h3>Morris Dancing</h3>
<p>Subversion commit access requires an account on Morris. The server
behind busybox.net and uclibc.org. If you want to be able to commit things to
Subversion, first contribute some stuff to show you are serious, can handle
some responsibility, and that your patches don't generally need a lot of
cleanup. Then, very nicely ask one of us (<a href="mailto:rob@landley.net">Rob
Landley</a> for BusyBox, or <a href="mailto:andersen@codepoet.org">Erik
Andersen</a> for uClibc) for an account.</p>

<p>A morris account also gives you a personal web page
(http://busybox.net/~username comes from ~/public_html on morris), and of
course a shell prompt you can ssh into (as a regular user, root access is
reserved for Erik and Rob). But keep in mind an account on Morris is a
reserved for folks doing maintenancy stuff only). But keep in mind an
account on Morris is a
priviledge, not a requirement. Most contributors to busybox and uClibc
haven't got one, and accounts are handed out to make the project maintainers'
lives easier, not because "you deserve it".</p>
