There are currently two bug trackers: One at rt.perl.org and one at http://code.google.com/p/smtpd/issues/list I think the latter is currently preferred. > - what's the current thinking on gathering third-party plugins?

Unfortunately I seem to be the only one (only Hanno has also submitted plugins for the contrib directory, and AFAICS he hasn't updated them for quite a while). Part of the problem may be that only a few people have write access to the repository and they are always short of time. Still: If you want to submit anything to svn/contrib, please send it to me and if I don't answer for a week or so, send it again :-). The wiki is nice for simple plugins which consist of only a single file, and of course anybody can add stuff there. If it gets a bit more complicated (for example, I recently added testcases to require_resolvable_client, bringing the total file count up to 6), I don't think that's practical any more (Can you upload .tar.gz files to the wiki? I honestly don't know). So I just add a short notice for my plugins to the wiki with links to the svn repository and my own pages. hp -- _ | Peter J.
