I think what Moritz means is the following. Missing DSA's will be committed in due time - normally they are commited after someone releases them but this sometimes doesn't happen, however, then the next one committing one will notice the previous missing ones and they will be added at the same time. Moritz'es point is that if you spend time on sending the mails and us on processing them, whatever the good intentions may be, we're not gaining that much from it because in total more time is spent. This is different from actually adding real new information btw, like typos in CVE ids or more information about vulnerabilities. If you would however commit them yourself, then that would actually save us time which we can spend on other issues. So to get you started with subversion: You do a checkout once like this: svn checkout svn://svn.debian.org/svn/secure-testing To update to the latest version do this: svn update To see which local changes you made: svn diff To send those changes to the repository: svn commit [filenames] Good luck!
