I meant primarily taking on the responsability of converting packages, on an ongoing basis. This is not a trivial task: Quite a few of our packages will need massaging, for them to work under IPS. Additionally, this person would then have de-facto responsability, of giving feedback to the "mainline group" (ie: the maintainers at large :) on things that do not translate well to IPS mechanisms If anyone is interested, please email me privately, and i will discuss more details there. _______________________________________________ maintainers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.opencsw.org/mailman/listinfo/maintainers
