"A project exists if it has a web page at www.g.o/proj/en/whatever that |
| 2 |
is maintained. ("Maintained" means that the information on the page is |
| 3 |
factually correct and not out-of-date.) If the webpage isn't maintained, |
| 4 |
it is presumed dead." |

I'm not trying to pick on any projects. Some pages are out of date but |
| 7 |
look ok ( like catalyst! Thats an old page! but i know you are writing |
| 8 |
2.0 docs soon ;)). I'm used my own descretion in picking out projects |
| 9 |
(including projects for which I am a member). Very few are dead, mostly |
| 10 |
just listing retired devs as active. |

Gentoo/MIPS, your project page needs updates (last updated 2005, by the |
| 13 |
looks of things). Your page also lists retired developers (Ciaran).[1] |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
Gentoo/PPC64, you also need to update your website (last updated 2005)[2] |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
Gentoo/Sparc, some of your developers were retired (todd,cjr)[3] |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
Eselect, your project pages lists retired developers (Ciaran).[4] |

GLEP - I actually e-mailed Grant a bunch of updates and I'm waiting for |
| 22 |
those to get done ;) |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
Portage/Sandbox - I say we just remove this, afaik no development has |
| 25 |
happened in a long time.[5] |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
Installer - I know you guys have news, post some tidbits ;)[6] |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
kernel/security - Your page is bare, and lists brix as a member, he |
| 30 |
resigned months ago. Unless you feel this page is useful to some |
| 31 |
people, I'm not sure what good it does.[7] |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
Gentoo/Status - Oh the irony ;) many of the projects listed never |
| 34 |
updated their webpages, hopefully this mail will encourage some, lest I |
| 35 |
just cvs rm -f their project pages for lack of updates ;) no updates |
| 36 |
for 4 months.[8] |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
Gentoo/QA - You have no lead, and your pages list retired developers |
| 39 |
(Halcy0n).[9] |
