In article [EMAIL PROTECTED] you write: Ok, I'm game. I have had to fend off enough people from taking my packages that this is worth my time. Besides, I enjoy writing CGI, call me sick. What do we want/need/desire/despise and let's get this going. a database with the stuff from wnpp (list of programs that should be packages, and of orphaned/giveaway packages). would be nice to also handle tasks with that (e.g. someone to check permissions of files and suid/sgid bits in all packages). the whole thing with a i will do it button, maybe also with a history function. no access control: we will correct things, if some people do crap. a daily or weekly journal to debian-devel would also be nice... andreas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

I had a package of mine moved to orphaned and I never knew about it, we should notify maintainers whenever thier packages are orphaned. - Tom -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Well classes just ended (I was taking a summer course). So everyone put your heads together and tell me what you want. Once a general idea is agreed on I will happily code it. If we want vacations and stuff -- that is fine also. How much security are we allowing for here? How should we control access to the page?? Maybe it would be better to write a shell script on master/va for vacations? `vacation -on -time=5 days shaleh` (as long as shaleh=uid I get set to vacationing for x). This will then be displayed on a web page and/or sent to a mailing list once a week. Basically I enjoy small, stupid coding projects like this. Lets me vent.
