Maybe James is a little bit busy and forgot to apply and make a new
release to fix this bug? Have you asked him, why he didn't applied your
patch?

Right, and I think this is the intention of our work.

Well, do we really need this? I don't see why we need a directory for
packages which habe been fixed by us, as the patch should go to the
maintainer. And then the maintainer should incorporate it and use it. So
I only think we need a webpage, where we can show the other developers
on which package who of us is working and what the current status is.
