1 Hi folks,

4 some while ago I've already talked a bit about the OSS-QM project
5 and it's source code repositories, which include upstreams together
6 with downstream's (distros, etc) changes.
7
8 Here's a paper describing it more in datail, from automated upstream
9 imports down to also importing downstream/distro changes automatically.

11 The latter works quite well for recent Debian packages (at least
12 when following their own policies ;-o), as they tell quite exactly
13 which patches have to be applied (and their order). For Gentoo it's
14 more complicated, as I dont know a way to exact that information yet.
