I think a package description and indexes are essential to get most of the
new package repository. I am willing to work on this.

I based my script on this description format already, see the files in my
directory.

The question is where the .desc files are stored in relation to the
packages.
I see two possibilities:
- Store them in a different CVS tree. Easily retrievable, likely to be
ignored when packages are updated
- Add them to the packages. More difficult to be retrieved.

I have examined the scripts already. But where do I run them to index the
new CVS package repository? I don't get shell access to cvs.sourceforge.net.
