There's a lot to improve, but some of the changes can be easy to do (e.g. patches rejected upstream but available in debbug's own bug tracker). We should setup a local branch of debbugs for it, so we can track the upstream code, of course. > I think there is a problem with the mail-news gateway that needs > addressing somehow (bug#936). Unrelated rant: I've been a fervent usenet user for many years, but I must say I find it more and more difficut to access usenet: even my university's CS department (i.e. where I work) doesn't provide usenet access any more. I think usenet is sadly dying, replaced by mailing-lists and crappy web-forums. Stefan
