Well, locking out by removing everybody is one thing, but automatically
locking out myself just because moving ownership is a bit more grave, in
particular because its completely unforseeable.

Thanks for re-assuring, though I wonder now wether I should update the wiki
as the sysadmins don't have to be bothered with the permission-setup as far
as I could see. The process in techbase reads as if it would take a couple
of days as you'd have to notify people a couple of times. But in fact I've
set it all up within less than a day and now just need to wait for things
like scripty, commit-hooks etc.
