 * Repository of old source packages (LucasNussbaum). Having a repository of old source packages would make scott's patches and MoM much more helpful, and would often make MOTU work easier. Ubuntu could have its own archive of ''useful old source packages''.
  * ''useful old source packages'' for a given package '''P''' are :
   * version of P in Dapper
   * version of P in Debian unstable
   * Debian version of P on which P's ubuntu version was based. (e.g: if P has version 1.0-1ubuntu1, we need Debian's 1.0-1)
   * same reasoning for other Ubuntu versions.
  * LucasNussbaum is willing to work on this and provide a web interface to download specific versions (not do-able with apt-get source since you can't have several versions of the same package in the archive). Can Ubuntu provide a machine with enough disk space (100G should probably be enough) ?

  • GPL vs GPL-2 in debian/copyright (JonathanRiddell and the MOTU)

  • xine or gstreamer for kubuntu dapper

      • version of P in Dapper
      • version of P in Debian unstable
