Great, thanks for putting this up, and maintaining it!  (And apologies for not
doing anything with mine in the last two weeks, I've been on travel a good
amount.)

I think you probably have a few things I wouldn't put in there, like since
freeamp has been pulled from the potato binary distribution, it's not clear it
belongs there.  But looks good, I've linked it from my page, as they seem very
complementary.

Mine pretty much just has my own bugs, but with some additional information,
like a 2.2.15 package for quik users (along with vmlinux, vmlinux.coff and
modules.tar.gz for possible install use, .config and build log for those
curious); a patch which makes kerberos4kth build and run (flawlessly AFAICT); a
one-line patch which makes the GNOME mixer applet control the internal and
external speakers...

Will (continue to) do.
