Note that many maintainers either -subscribe to the announce mailing lists for the software they maintain -subscribe to freshmeat.net announcements for their software If they don't, they at least get spammed by rpmwatcho every 2nd week with their packages that are out-of-date (compared to freshmeat.net or Debian or Redhat). If some piece of software you use often is not updated within 2 weeks of a new release (or if it's a critical update and we're near release), mail the maintainer first to enquire the status. For those interested, samba3-3.0alpha24 doesn't build at present on cooker, it seems the quota interface has changed again (there is already an inline edit in the samba3 package for 9.1 where it does build, same inline edit doesn't work on cooker, but funnily enough samba-2.2.x built fine ...) Oh, and I will get around to pam_mount sometime ... Buchan
