Yes, I understand that - But I'm trying to push you towards the inside
;-) I don't know the detailed policies in Ubuntu, but I'd love to see
you officially maintaining Cherokee in Universe, as a full MOTU
member, rather than having a separate repository hosted in Launchpad -
Not only it will give greater exposition to your work, but it will be
integrated and used by more people.

Agree - And we need more qualified people to work on stable releases
as well. Supporting only the bleeding edge will do more harm than
good!

Sorry if I indicated otherwise - I _do_ want you to take it over. But
fully, and within the official Ubuntu packaging (yes, although it is
in Universe which roughly translates to "that's not really Ubuntu but
never mind" ;-) ). I want your work to spread as much as
possible. And, as I said in an earlier mail, I would love you to
become also an authorized uploader for Debian's package, as I'm often
short on time - having extra manpower will be good.
