Yes, but do we have some kind of spec standard for guildhall packages?
If answer is no, I'll do some post-work before the policy discussion.
And another related question bothered me for a long time: which is
guildhall's upstream
repo now? ijp's? or andy's?
I think ijp's repo is newer now, maybe do a merge work is better.

It's fine to take advantage of the bug tracker, except for 'bug' ;-P
Isn't there any other way for the transaction with GNU things?
I'll throw it into my TODO list.
(error TODO "your list is overflow!")

Mark and me both have GNU account, is it enough? Or we'll have an extra one?

We may write a simple one for just working, and after my Glow(Guile Lauch
on Web) done, we may write a brand new site for a whole guildhall in a Ruby
on rails like way.
God knows when it's done...but in a long term, such a thing would be
expected by any folks.

Thanks!
