I do not consider that reasonable, no.

I would much rather prefer Ubuntu does to their upstream what
 I do with mine: I send distinct patch series, rebased to their current
 version, in their preferred forum: either thier BTS, or their mailing
 list.

*That* is reasonable.  I don't have time to go trawling through
 whatever location the 162 Debian derivatives have set up with their
 patches; and I do not want a monolithic patch, with the derivative
 branding mixed in with changes I have made that they cherry picked on
 top of an ancient version of mine, all munged together.

If you think that is reasonable, perhaps you should not be
 designing a patch management system?

Have the pkg-e people had anything to say about this?

Hi Barry!

Did I miss a message from you about libpam-foreground? In this case I am
sorry for making you wait.
  
Oh yeah and if you are thinking of looking at it, he is also looking at 
tkdiff already.


Thanks again!

Vincent,

No, not at all.  Actually I shouldn't have posted it as Thomas was 
already helping me.


Thanks for your input though!

How much static content will you have? I mean: it's not like this
service will receive millions of requests per day. It could be better to
have only a few static pages, and do everything else on-demand.

Yes. I'm sure that you will receive offers to host this service on a
suitable host, when necessary.
