That will be changing very soon. I promise!  Once we decide on Debian,
things will start moving rapidly.

Agreed.  However, part of the reason we were unprepared was because no one
answered the call to help out in getting prepared.

As soon as we can find people willing and able to make the site grow, it
will grow exponentially.  Some of these documents exist, but are out of
date and not set up for the web.

There are some procedures I have written down that will be implemented as
soon as we have the infrastructure for it.  Unfortunately, (I repeat) I do
not have time to do everything, and very few people with the necessary
combined experience in CVS, Perl, and HTML has stepped forward to help
out.  If someone out there can help, *please* email me and we can get
started.
