Everything seems pretty clear, except that the sysadmin-guide package has several willing adopters. Choosing among them is difficult, but it would seem that Stephen Stafford seems most serious about it and is willing to be the upstream as well. I hope all the others will help, though, especially with getting the text up to date again. I know from experience that writing and maintaining a book requires plenty of effort. Even just getting notes from others saying that this part is not correct and needs to be updated is quite helpful. I'll mail the new maintainers privately and ask them to make uploads. -- Lars Wirzenius [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Orphaning all packages -- adopting syslog-summary

Package: syslog-summary
Description: Summarize the contents of a syslog log file.
This program summarizes the contents of a log file written by syslog,
by displaying each unique (except for the time) line once, and also
the number of times such a line occurs in the input. The lines are
displayed in the order they occur in the input.
I use syslog-summary extensively, I can take it.
The question is -- can I do upstreamish things to it, too?
