I accidentally posted that one email at top. All others have been inline.
So chill. ;)

Ok, thanks for the info! I'll review it so as not to annoy you any further.

As I recall, actually, I only followed-up once. But I could be mistaken;
it was two years ago, after all.

I'm pretty sure the approval was on the open list, though he may have
forgotten to do a reply-all. I'll have to look through my inbox. I don't
remember who it was off the top of my head.

I'm not sure. This was all the way back in 2010. I remember the UI was
very different though. But if what you say is true and it was always
Docbook, then the only logical explanation is that I'm remembering
something else.
I have used this account primarily for updates to the Wiki thus far. I've
also done some comments and handled a few bugs. In addition, I submitted
an RFC and it passed unanimously, though I'm still (slooowly) getting my
new dev environment setup so I haven't committed the code change to Git yet.
I've been encouraged to start helping maintain the online docs, which seems
like a good idea since there's a definite need for it and it's something I
can help with while I'm getting my dev environment setup. That's when I
ran into this brick wall. The sooner it's fixed, the sooner I can start
making myself a little more useful than I have been as of late.

Ok, so should I contact Philip or do you have time to take care of this?
Thanks!
