Can someone double check the GMT time so I can be sure its the correct time. Anyways on a side note I like the wiki page except I don't know where to sign up for the mailing list. Also can we add links to other resources. So that someone who IS interested can at least turn around and look for further information so we don't get someone asking what I need to download to start packaging a software. Or how do I submit a package or how do I write up documentation. Or if someone has written documentation yet the formatting is wrong. I think personally most people are pretty good and that they would be happy to do research but questions specific to certain instances is where they would ask questions. IMO of course.
