OK.  At this point I think the one task *I* need to do is to make some people members of the Twisted org on github.  Can I have a list of all the relevant github handles?

(Also, please be careful, and don't push to the main Twisted repo if you work on Twisted.  Github is super obnoxious about mirroring; we can't turn off pull requests and we can't turn off pushes even though it's really supposed to be a read-only mirror right now, and pushes to that repository break our SVN integration.)

Sounds good to me.

If there's going to be a web UI it should probably use twisted.web.template and not nevow, given that it doesn't use Athena or any JS.
