In one sense, nothing, because it's already done: the known packages are in the Packages node of the XEmacs Users' Guide, and the maintainer address is $PACKAGE-maintainer(a)xemacs.org. Also, that's exactly what I suggested in the first line you cut, no? The administrative holdups on getting it done are 1) privacy/spam: we don't want private addresses published on the web page without permission of the person. So we need to filter personal addresses to ＠xemacs.org addresses. 2) We probably do want real names (or net aliases for the dogs among us) 3) (Adrian's point) Since this information is already available in many places, we want to eliminate redundancy so there will be half a chance of keeping it up to date and accurate. Perhaps we can do package-lists-maintainer: dmaster(a)synopsys.com hm? -- Institute of Policy and Planning Sciences http://turnbull.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN Ask not how you can "do" free software business; ask what your business can "do for" free software.
