Thank you for your kind offer. I see you've already started hosting the web pages. However, I do not think we have any need to take up your other specific offers. Most of the matters you address are already handled adequately by zsh developers, and I'd like it to stay that way. >* mailinglists run by ezmlm which means completely maintenance free > lists.

We have no need to rehost the mailing lists, unless he wishes to stop administering them. Anyone wishing to read the lists as newsgroups can arrange that on their own system. >* faq's - perhaps using our web-based FAQ tool so that everyone can > help maintain it. This is Peter's area, but my impression is that the FAQ is already adequately maintained using our current tools, and having a single maintainer is an advantage. >* Source development with a CVS server with read/write usernames to > developers and read-only access to everyone else.

I do not want the master development sources to be on a machine over which I do not have full control. The FTP area also needs to be much more tightly controlled than development sources; I have arranged, with Geoff Wing, a means of remote updates with PGP authentication, which CVS just can't match. >* Search engine using Infoseek search engine. No doubt this would be useful as part of the web site. -zefram -- Andrew Main , coordinator of the Zsh Development Group
