This part of policy is not very clear. As I read it, you don't need to make a formal proposal for new virtual package names (or menu categories); you just have to discuss the proposal on d-policy. If nobody complains, you're in. This is, I believe, the reason that the virtual package list (and the menu tree) are kept as separate documents: so that they can be updated separately. As for the proposal itself, "http-cgi" seems like a reasonable name, and a reasonable virtual package. The only thing I'd ask is this be added to the daemons *before* any packages try to use it as a dependency. Get in touch with the httpd maintainers, and make sure they're ready and willing to do this, and (if no one has objected by that time) we should be go. cheers -- Chris Waters | Pneumonoultra- osis is too long [EMAIL PROTECTED] | microscopicsilico- to fit into a single or [EMAIL PROTECTED] | volcaniconi- standalone haiku
