Hmm, I'm concerned about this. If the parties concerned are happy, could
you pass on their contact details to me or
developer-membership-board at l.u.c and I/we will follow up with them. I
don't want the process to be seen as such a huge burden that puts people
who should be given uploads rights off from even applying, and I'm keen
to work to change this.

Cheers,
