Hi all, I know that IPSEC isn't quite as 'sexy' as the work being done over at LibreOffice, but I would like to suggest some minor improvements that I feel would make a big difference: Creation of a 'marketing' or 'general' section of the website - somewhere to see a list of Linux distributions currently using LS (and therefore those not), I'm new to the game, so not quite sure how established communication works between the distributions, but on Saturday Mike Gilbert (Gentoo) posted about integration with their distribution, and it (appeared to me) that he may have accidently stumbled upon the existence of LS, relying on the distribution maintainers being 'in the know' and aware of new packages, rather than directly contacted with an e-mail saying 'hey, don't you know we are the new name in IPSEC'. Please forgive my ignorance if there is already something in place, or all the distribution maintainers have already been personally contacted. The next on my list would be a roadmap - this might be a difficult subject as I seem to remember the OpenSwan roadmap / wish list / bug tracker seemed to get rolled into one page that (again my personal opinion) never got updated, or gave a true reflection on the status of the project. A wish or feature list separate from a bug report, on which I would request things like, improved logging / detailed error messages, or output of real time tunnel status (SA lifetime) etc (for easy pickup by a GUI). I know that the community for LibreSwan is never going to get anywhere near the size of LibreOffice, but a small amount of marketing could (I hope) significantly improve the uptake of LS across the distributions. I would we willing to offer my assistance, albeit within my limited technical ability.
