Yes, but how? Of course, I don't intend to run this thing into the 
ground. I want the project to be useful for everyone. I only recently 
got involved with the project, and so most people here don't know me or 
my work that well. Maybe me contributing to the main git project can 
help. But other than that, the only way to build that trust is with 
time.

Well, Pat has not replied to your email, so I don't think that will be 
possible.

Of course. But knowing them doesn't hurt :).
