Ok, sysadmin folks -- do you see something for Stefan in the backlogs?  Could 
someone just take a look to see if there's something around there?  If not 
I'm sure you guys can work out the details to get the account created...

That's what core-devel is for.  If there's a patch that you're not comfortable 
just committing, send it there to get someone to look over it.

And if a bad patch or two slips in it won't be the first or last time for that 
to happen.  ;-)  Don't worry -- you'll be appropriately flamed at the 
time.  :-)

Ok, so seems like this is all worked out and I'd just assume call the issue 
done as far as the list is concerned and the remaining stuff can be worked 
out off list (account creation, posting of patches).
