My most common use for the HOMEPAGE is when I'm looking through eix output wondering "WTF does this do?" So I visit the homepage to find out. Even for a six-line script, you should have the time to essentially `echo README > index.html` and upload it somewhere. This at least lets people click on the URL, see what the package does, and find out where to report bugs. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJQ8v4pAAoJEBxJck0inpOiQuEP/RYcdAAPyEaxn82D4IpKQfow 7PK2093inRZtXwdXGw7Ijg00wurgW50panrJ2pWExmwXvSvZddY3wDGXpypW9W+C YcVk7JuAPvUAM5MUkRhWqlIc/ifDpLc7fsXpcT9yUp9phpbMHCLNmXTSEAm1MWhS 0dhzHDqr7UySwjxRLtoL3xnb2xYVHtUy1XMRIICl45FbLPBqB3ZQCi/jDEFILEqA +Y9LJTV1a+RGoT97SbQfSbSyFeMAOG1o9LPuDUrYzRMhYeFQDVsUQG+ek2UOvF5q V8usQnx69P7s+yl4PUTKQ33nINZonKYTg3XOVuEgv/ZZGwx3ddZAOhfrNczkHdWk ZMf62RaN8NRRK97Jid9WnLk7MGN2IdeABgHegqbRtIb3+yi57/JLvONMx1zFOtCp y0fBgL+sBF3UhKEfGHgj8iy3prWUdVFizK1rgBIB2tPUzht5uM1RC5VYW7QOpID9 syMGm3b22wVEtmcgw7Kqn7Dam+R/QGSGcJsbNRFIdslzwyrEaqNbTcsYK1qwBCfH iOekrGYE8GyIWF3z8yopkgErLl4S+0lRTuQ9T1nwetP3OaJLPn71r6Rn24DgJjeb xKEkR+Sbn17pooXIkW4idaPw9YhwP7FyGxpmvF1wRKFG/nE5Bh/bC2D+qqq5JbTt 44nxXjaTEsRuh8jjmcbp =gcv7 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
