Re: Introducing RFH and OTH?
[changing from d-wnpp to d-qa, it's probably better, and dropping
d-release]

Updated patch attached. I now added some documentation to the start page
of WNPP. Proofreading appreaciated. The web pages linked from above are
updated, too.
Still seeking for some comments. I think adding RFH is not really
controversial, but introducing an OTH tag may lead to some
flamewars^Wdiscussions, so I don't want to make this without
a previous consent at least between the QA people...
I'm beginning a list of things to patch after introducing a new WNPP
tag:
- wnpp scripts in the QA CVS
data/wnpp:
- wnpp-lint
- maintainers-needed.pl
- reportbug
Any other ideas?
Gruesse,
