You do recall that I'm not actually on the technical committee any more,
right?  I "timed out" due to the term limits GR at the end of 2015.

FWIW, I had no idea such a thing even existed.

 Please join the conversation under [0], I believe I'm no further qualified 
 to talk on behalf of Debian.
 
 In my understanding, the following ideas have emerged until now, listed in 
 decreasing order of preference of Sergey Poznyakoff, the GNU tar 
 maintainer (ie. top entry is most preferred):
 
 [0] http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-tar/2009-10/msg8.html
 [1] http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-tar/2009-10/msg4.html
 [2] http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-tar/2009-10/msg5.html

As the maintainer of the Debian packaging of tar, I'm ok with Sergey's
proposal in [0].

But, sigh, I struggle to refrain from going too far into grumpy old man
mode, pining away for the days when we all knew how to, and were willing
to, use '|'... and tar was a much simpler beast.

Sorry, the message(s) to [EMAIL PROTECTED] were being held since
I tend to have the lists here configured to only accept messages from
subscribers, neither your message nor Joey's reply were from subscribed
addresses, and I apparently missed the admin notices asking me to go
approve them.  I just did that.

 What exactly should I do? I would like to host this somewhere where
 others could have access to a svn repository. I think that I can
 register a new project on BerliOS, but suggestions are welcome.

Stephen and I share access to a CVS repository on one of my systems for
this and other projects, but access to it doesn't scale well.  Moving to
an alioth project probably makes the most sense, as that's a Debian
resource and this is a pretty Debian-specific package.

 And, of course, I would love to know what Bdale and Stephen have learned
 on the problem (Bdale mentioned that they now know of better ways of
 accomplishing some goals).

Stephen has his head down right now trying to finish up the firmware for
an AMSAT project we are collaborating on that is pretty orthogonal to
Debian.  While we both care about vrms, I think I'm speaking for both of
us when I say we don't want to stand in the way of progress.  Looks like
we've been doing that pretty effectively through neglect, however...

Thanks for your work on the package, Rogério, and thanks for sponsoring
the upload, Joey.
