 ftp://ftp.linux-mandrake.com/incoming and emailing Lenny is enough

The howto lists the correct procedure afaik.

 (This
 is proven to be incorrect since I have uploaded STLPort a week ago and
 it neither got in contribs, nor I have received a response from anyone).
 Can someone point out the correct procedure please?

Lenny is a busy man and it can take a few weeks before a package arrives in contrib. 
When it gets dropped to /dev/null it would be a good idea to receive a notice of it. 
I would like that at least.

[Cooker] Contributing to cooker

2002-01-13 Thread Alkis Evlogimenos

Hi all,

I am wondering what is the proper procedure to follow in order to
contribute to cooker. I have read the mdk-rpm-howto and the
http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/cookerdevel.php3 page. There are
conflicting instructions between the webpage and the howto. To be more
specific:
- The web page says that a person that wants to contribute *must* have a
@mandrakesoft.com email address and send his gpg key to mandrake prior
to uploading the packages.
- The howto says that simply uploading to
ftp://ftp.linux-mandrake.com/incoming and emailing Lenny is enough (This

it neither got in contribs, nor I have received a response from anyone).
Can someone point out the correct procedure please?

Thanks,
