Well, I thought about something like that when writing the mail. It sounds fine for most cases, but sometimes, it may be a good idea to add some more discussion with an applicant before they're free to upload on their own. For example, from a QA point of view, it sounds like a good idea to speak a bit about library packaging when an applicant wants to maintain a library. Even if you get the initial package right, there are *so* many pitfalls that bugs are easily added. Marc -- Fachbegriffe der Informatik - Einfach erklärt 276: SMP Fehlfunktion bei mehr als einer CPU.
