I recently asked a developer (John Carr) to to request an SVN account
for his Tomboy work.  He did via Mango, but I never received an email.
 So I retrieved my Mango password for the first time and logged in,
where I saw I had a pending account request.  I approved the request.
I have not received any emails from Mango (neither did Boyd, who is
one of the other maintainers of Tomboy).

The developer received an email after submitting his initial request,
and again after I approved it.

Our MAINTAINERS file [1] appears to have all of the right information.

Should I have received any emails for this?  Did I do the wrong thing
by logging in to Mango and approving the request?

(By the way, I don't subscribe to gnome-infrastructure, so please CC
me on any responses intended for me.)

Thanks for all the hard work on improving our community,
Sandy
