Sorry it's been so long for one of these lists. This ones really
long, and is available as NEW.Apr15.

While I have a soapbox to stand on, I want to ask all authors and
uploaders to include an LSM description file.  Jeff Kopmanis is
trying to put together a database of all of the linux pacakges 
out in the world, along with availability, latest release information, 
etc. I'm planning on making his final database available via WAIS
from sunsite to allow online searching. Hopefully, this effort will
substantially reduce the amount of confusion on c.o.l. of the 
"where is ...." type.

Write to jeffk@cyberspace.org for information on how you can help
with this work (he has a list of over 800 packages he needs more
information on) or to find out what kind of information he'd like for
new uploads. Just put a file with a .lsm extension in /pub/Linux/Incoming,
and I'll make sure it get to him. Even if the package doesn't exist
on sunsite and never will, it'd be nice to have it in the database.

Thanks,

Erik
