You need to move to using wml. But that's entirely painless. I can do the initial tranformation, if you like. If you wish to, you can be given CVS access (probably - it's not actually mine to give, but Jay's recent emphasis has been decentralising responsibillity). Or you can liase via me. > > I'd like to see a manual for people doing the porting projects as > well. > So would I, very much. I don't have the expertise to do this.

Iam indeed subscribed to the mailing list. However, it is not a port of Linux to another architecture, which an accompanying port of Debian, but rather a port of Debian to another kernel. Maybe it should go on ports, for lack of a better place to put it, but it seems somehow different.
