I'm not sure what Chris C. means below -- Linux permissions cannot be bypassed.
So user chrismuller still need to be added to "website" and "updates" please.

Ken or someone could you add me to the "website" group?
PS - While I was in there the soft-link "current_development" and "current_stable" are pointing to 4.4alpha and 4.3, respectively. Those are owned by the "updates" user, maybe I should be added to "updates" too.
Thanks.
Well, I think you can ftp to your home directory, upload it, and then copy it over to the 4.4alpha directory.
I just spent a weird ten minutes changing permissions (Note Bene: I changed them back) of that directory and I couldn't access it directly with ftp (or sftp). I keep getting redirected to my home directory. So it's clear I could ftp upload and then copy over.
You could do that, Chris. Or you could send the zip to me and I'll do it. As a demonstration, I just copied a photo from the home page of the nytimes.com to the 4.4alpha directory.
