thanks for your offer. There are already some volunteers, but I guess the more people fixing bugs the better. Welcome on board and thanks for your help. Before you get write access to the svn repository, you should provide some patches / work on some bugs. Useful reading includes http://lists.debian.org/debian-apache/2008/05/msg00132.html http://wiki.debian.org/Apache2LennyGoals http://lists.debian.org/debian-apache/2008/03/msg00067.html Besides what is in the links, there are two more things that I think would be useful: - Check the packages (apache2/apr/apr-util/ssl-cert) for changes needed or recommended with policy 3.8.0. - Package apr/apr-util 1.3 in a way that the dbd drivers (and maybe ldap) get separated into their own packages. This way people who only use subversion would not need to install the mysql and postgres client libraries. This probably requires some experience with packaging shared libraries. Apr 1.3 will be for lenny+1, however. Lenny will be released with apr/apr-util 1.2.12, but we could upload 1.3 to experimental already. (The other volunteers are of course welcome to do this, too ;-) ) Cheers, Stefan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
