Lee, I second your thoughts, thanks for that. I've had some interest from a chap called Peter, who seems keen to help us with the PFV. I look forward to his contributions, and that of the others who have kindly signed-up to some of the package categories.
I did some more work this morning, so hopefully our package page looks a little more populated :-). Thanks to all of you for taking time to add value to the distro. Cheers, Chris. On 23/06/07, Lee McCafferty <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Regarding package verification, I am quite happy to work away at one or two packages a time and will continue to do so. Thanks for the praise though Chris (it's always welcome). Also, adding a record each update is a good idea and I will start doing so. I also think that it is a good idea because if anyone wants to help out on a package already started, some order can be maintained. That said, I would encourage anyone who can, to volunteer on a package (doesn't necessarily even have to be a new one). It is not difficult and doesn't have to be particularly time consuming, if you have ten minutes to spare you could probably verify 3 or 4 programs. Unless of course you find a non-free program, but then that's why we're doing this, innit? ;).
