I have always felt that my expertise is not great enough to seek publication
on somewhere like pkgmaster.

I do what little I can to help out when I can.

I have made a few pkg files mainly for myself, as I keep breaking my RAQ and
it makes putting them back together easier for me.

I then share these if they seem to work.

I have lousy bandwidth as well (I am in the UK) and when I did the apache
upgrade, I got hit big time.

What would be nice, is if there was a central location, where all the pkgs,
fixes, how to's  of all the users of this list could be posted.
http://www.uk2raq.com/raqfaq/ does this very nicely, maybe Sun (cough Bruce)
might like to consider supplying some space and get a few volunteers from
this list to maintain it.
