As I already have more than one proposal we can consider it taken care of, for packages in community. I will see how we can set up a dedicated mailing list since that's what folks seem to prefer here. But I need another volunteer to administer and maintain an ML and anything else that you guys would like (forums, website, build machine, etc). I believe then the constant user feedback loop will help all of us keep packages and other stuff up-to-date and tested. I will continue to maintain packages for extra and a few in community with a co-maintainer to help me (because I use them personally when I am booted into my Linux system). That co-maintainer can then also request another developer to apply changes in extra for any package that I am late in updating. Please let me know if this sounds like a plan. -- GPG/PGP ID: C0711BF1
