Well, there seems to be a lot of DD asking others to test experimental packages out there, so I just might as well do the same. I recently tried to do some QA with some base packages that have an outstanding list of open bugs (some of which are quite easy to fix, others which are not that easy to). Since base packages are not something I would like to have sid users test so near the release, I just figured I would make them available as 'experimental' packages and try to have some feedback on them. So, if you want to test a new bugfix related modutils release, please try out the modutil packages available at: http://packages.debian.org/experimental/base/modutils If you want to test a new release for sysklogd fixing bugs and introducing new features, please try out the sysklogd packages available at: http://people.debian.org/~jfs/NMU/sysklogd/ (these are not in experimental since the maintainer has not yet approven a NMU) I would really appreciate if other developers could see if those packages fix some of the bugs (please see the changelog) in the packages that might annoy them and send information to the BTS (or to myself) saying: "The patch available in XXXX fixes this issue for me". I have done limited testing of these packages but I would like broader testing in order to decide wether pushing these packages post-sarge would be a good thing to do. Thanks Javier
