wanted: more extensive package info



IMHO, package pages, e.g.
    http://www.debian.org/Packages/unstable/base/bash.html
should have a pointer to the package homepage if it exists,
and more info about the author(s), development effort, etc.

It would be nice to have an idea whether a package is under
current rapid development, mature, senile, dying, etc.

It would also be nice to know whether the development effort
is a one-man-show, benevolent dictatorship, participatory
democracy, hallucinatory anarchy, etc.

Also, would it be reasonable to encourage authors/teams to
use SourceForge or equivalent?
