Looks OK. BTW, I'd like to add one comment: I think commiting the upstream tarball in the SVN repo is silly. I know, I've already said so in the past and I still stand, because it doesn't add any historical benefit to the repository (every tarball has a different name). So, I'd propose that we move those tarballs to a dedicated download location: alioth provides an Anonymous FTP location which could be use for that purpose. We could also use the space dedicated to the web stuff. -- Jérôme Marant http://marant.org
