On a related note: Cistron (the people hosting www.nl.debian.org) appears to be willing to setup a searchengine for the website.

Perhaps a small link should be put there as well? About the list: dialog doesn't handle dates, so it's safe. Same for base-passwd, base-files, hostname, dpkg and e2fsprogs. (the only dates dealt with are time_t's, not ASCII stuff). Should we send a note to all maintainer to ask them to check if their packages are y2k-safe? If we get info for all packages we will have to reorganize the list as well.. Also, there appear to be two types of OK.. what is the difference? Wichert.
