I see, thanks.

What I just can't figure out is: what is the current process of
becoming a comitter.  http://www.zope.org/DevHome/Subversion/FrontPage
still links to http://www.zope.org/DevHome/Subversion/Contributor.pdf
which is very old.  Is it still used?

I probably still have commit access from the pre-ZF days, but the
employer information I submitted has changed several times since then.
Now that I've started working for a more enlightened employer, I would
like to start checking in bugfixes again but I don't know whether I
should just use my old keys, or submit a new form, or what.
