Please find, for review, the debconf templates and packages descriptions for the ampache source package.
This review will last from Wednesday, September 19, 2007 to Saturday, September 29, 2007.
Please send reviews as unified diffs (diff -u) against the original
files. Comments about your proposed changes will be appreciated.
Your review should be sent as an answer to this mail.
When appropriate, I will send intermediate requests for review, with
"[RFRn]" (n>=2) as a subject tag.
When we will reach a consensus, I send a "Last Chance For
Comments" mail with "[LCFC]" as a subject tag.
Finally, the reviewed templates will be sent to the package maintainer
as a bug report, and a mail will be sent to this list with "[BTS]" as
a subject tag.

About the same rationale, with a proposal to add some extra info to
explain why Apache needs to be restarted.
