Well, we might have been entering them both as I never officially announced that I did it (I started after noticing the entry not being up-to-date once and assumed Kern had abandoned it). Unfortunately there seems to be no public place that shows who submitted an update, apart from the front page at the point where the entry appears there. I did find some mailing list archives though that mention my nickname: http://archives.neohapsis.com/archives/apps/freshmeat/2006-06/0008.html http://archives.neohapsis.com/archives/apps/freshmeat/2006-06/0004.html http://info.ccone.at/NEWS/msg02689.html http://archives.neohapsis.com/archives/apps/freshmeat/2006-05/0004.html http://info.ccone.at/NEWS/msg02534.html http://www.codecomments.com/message472726.html I also maintain the Bacula entry at Icewalkers (which I usually update simultaneously with the freshmeat one): http://www.icewalkers.com/Linux/Software/521080/Bacula.html n.B. there I use my other nickname (Yeah, I know I've got too many of them ;) ) And I used to update the entries on Linux.org and tucows. The former is defunct (been stating "We are currently updating this section of the site. Change submissions are temporarily disabled." for months now but I check from time to time to see when that changes), and I had the latter removed as it proved quite a pain to keep updated (Tucows has a very long review queue and they kept rejecting my updates because, according to them, they didn't manage to download the tar.gz file from Sourceforce 90% of the time. It ended up pingponging between me giving them URLs that always worked here and getting an answer from them asking for a different URL because the one I sent apparently didn't work. At some point I even referred them to the Sourceforge FTPs but even that didn't seem to work for them, so I finally threw the towel.).
