Hello Matthew, Just noticed it. I somehow got false information that its not possible to ITP a package without first getting a sponsor. So I packaged phpbb and sent a request to -mentors and -devel(on 03-11-02; Sylvain ITP'd it on 07-11-02) looking for a sponsor who can check the package and give me suggetions.
Any way am trying to contact him, as you said (and I hope ;) he might be willling to sponsor my package. Thx for your help. Cheers, madhu +++ Matthew Palmer [19/11/02 09:21 +1100]: * On Mon, 18 Nov 2002, Shiju p.
