Google account creation. Unless I'm mistaken, Google code requires<br>
committers to have a Google (@<a href="http://gmail.com" target="_blank">gmail.com</a>) account. So every committer would<br>
need to create such an account and request membership in the new project.<br>
I'm pretty sure that the project admins can't do that for you. (Well, maybe<br>
they can invite folks to the project, but they certainly can't setup the<br>
actual Google account.)<br>
