Hi there,
I've been waiting for the chance to become a CLC maintainer for a while now and have several ports I would like to contribute. Having read both the CLC and CRUX guidelines for port creation, I would now like a chance to prove myself as a maintainer. Most of my ports are game-related as I really like CRUX for playing games amongst other things. My aim is to only submit ports of programs that are mature and relatively stable.
A little about myself in real life...
I'm a student in Australia currently doing my Diploma of Network Engineering and got into linux a little less than a year ago. Whilst I don't have a great deal of experience behind me, I know how to perform most things under linux and have a good understanding of concepts behind CRUX. The only other distributions I have tried are Slackware and Red Hat (for about a day). So far I've been using CRUX since version 1.0
I don't have a website but I do hang out in #crux (nickname: daniel`) and am on the mailing list too. Some hobbies of mine include bikeriding, surfing and linux.
The following ports are ones that I have submitted, however at the moment many of these are out of date and need to be replaced with the ones I currently have sitting on my harddrive.
* unmaintained/foobillard
* unmaintained/chkrootkit
* unmaintained/bzflag/
* unmaintained/zsnes
* unmaintained/qstat
* unmaintained/mountapp
* unmaintained/wmnd
Below are some ports that I would like to add in the future.
* hping http://www.hping.org/
* xqf http://www.linuxgames.com/xqf/
* scummvm http://www.scummvm.org/
* exult http://exult.sourceforge.net/
* gift http://gift.sourceforge.net/
* giftcurs http://giftcurs.sourceforge.net/
* lua http://www.lua.org/
I would also like to remove the lopster port if nobody else wants it, since I no longer wish to maintain it.
* unmaintained/lopster
Aside from this, I would also like to assist with updating the following submitted ports that are now out of date.
* unmaintained/wine
* unmaintained/lsof
* unmaintained/xmame
* unmaintained/lbreakout2
Look forward to your reply

Hi there,
"It is time". I have written a draft for the maintainer guideline which
should open up CLC for some new and valueable maintainer. I tried to
collect the results of the discussions we had, and it sounds pretty well
to me; but please see for yourself:
http://clc.berlios.de/doc/maintainer-guide.html
I would like to publish this as soon as possible as we've been talking
about it for a while now, so please comment.
Best regards, Johannes

Hi there,
I will be on holiday in the week from 14th to 18th of July. I will try to
read my mail, but I'm not in front of my PC all day.
Mail to <mo(a)obbl-net.de> will be redirected to wherever I am :)
Bye,
Martin

Hi there,
Request to change the CLC package guidelines:
1. make dependencies a requirement
2. list dependencies to packages from opt
Additionally, we will place notes everywhere that dependencies can be
wrong, and that people should report bugs if they discover a missing
dependency. We don't want to spend a lot of time tracking every
dependency IMO.
comments?
Regards, Johannes

Hi there,
what in detail will land on which machine? Will crux.lugs.ch still be used
in any way. What will land on berlios.de?
Martin.
