I played around a bit, my current stuff (nothing serious yet)
is at http://people.debian.org/~djpig/pkg-invest/
status.html at least shows the amount of work we're talking about:
today it were 3350 new source packages when comparing woody and sarge,
about 400 source packages are not in sarge yet.

Of course there are some parts of them one can handle quicker than others.
Take for example the 30 new linux gazette issues...

I think we should discuss this further at LinuxTag, maybe we can come
up with some sort of plan. Sounds like a worthy task after all.

Gruesse,
