[admin] New project questions

[Gary King]

Hi Liam,

You _should_ now have a new project in /project/gsll. It has both CVS  
and SVN setup; it also has a Trac. I let the existing script create  
the usual three mailing lists (-CVS, -ANNOUNCE, and -DEVEL) and then  
deleted the first two. You should have received some automated mail  
that describes most of this.

I run into a few glitches while running the setup scripts. All  
_should_ be well but please let me know if anything seems awry.
