Instead your first step should be running wnpp-alert and helping maintain a package you already have installed. If you are lucky enough to have nothing reported by wnpp-alert or just can't help there, rc-alert is also a good place to start. Both of these tools should be better publicized. New packages are fine, but there seems to be a constant need for more maintainers of the packages that already exist. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =. b...@iguanasuicide.net ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-' http://iguanasuicide.net/ \_/
