Here is the link to join: http://alioth.debian.org/projects/pkg-auth/ I don't think your packages would be out of place in pkg-auth. You can still maintain a standalone wiki page and link to the pkg-auth wiki when we get it going. The most important thing that we should probably have in common is the build/patch/release process for all pkg-auth packages. This will make it easier for people to do NMUs, for example, if any particular maintainer is on vacation. auth-related packages probably have a higher profile and higher impact when issues are found, so anything we can do to give a speedy response is good. (I have a preference for using git and potentially git-buildpackage as the way forward) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
