Hello Support,

I have been appointed the new maintainer of the now dormant GNU Project presently know as DotGNU Project Forum System.

Richard Stallman has made this appointment,  I have enclosed a copy of said appointment

----copy---

I hereby appoint you as the new maintainer of dotgnu-forum.
Please notify me if ever you wish to step down.

The new-gnu people will mail you a file, maintain.text, which describes a lot of procedures for GNU maintainers.  The file also describes who you can ask for various kinds of support or advice.  If you encounter a situation where it isn't clear what to do, you can also ask mentors@gnu.org, which is a list of a few other GNU maintainers who have offered to answer questions for new maintainers.

They will also add you to the gnu-prog mailing list, a moderated list for announcements to GNU maintainers.  They will also add you to the gnu-prog-disc list, which can be used for discussion among GNU maintainers, but whether to stay on the list is up to you.

If ftp.gnu.org is the distribution site, please tell
-email is unavailable- when you have a version to release.  Please send in your gpg keys and other information to ftp-upload@gnu.org.  When that is set up, you'll be able to do uploads yourself.  See http://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain.html for details.

If the distribution site is not now ftp.gnu.org, we can move it there if you wish.  We invite you to put the CVS repository on subversions.gnu.org, but it is ok to use another site if you prefer.

Please write or update the web pages about the program, to put in http://www.gnu.org/software/PROGRAMNAME.  These pages should be the main web site for the program, and they should really have the information for users, not just a link to another site; please use http://www.gnu.org/software/PROGRAMNAME whenever you give out the URL for the home page of the program.  Please don't set up a "site for the program" anywhere else--if you want to do work on additional web pages about the program, please put them on www.gnu.org.

(It is ok to put pages that address developers-only topics on another site, and likewise for pages that access databases.)

In writing the web pages, please follow the style guidelines in http://www.gnu.org/server/fsf-html-style-sheet.html.  You can send the pages to -email is unavailable- when you are done, or you can use Savannah to install and edit them directly.

We invite you to use Savannah as the CVS repository for both the program and its web pages.  This makes it easy to update the web pages, since whatever you install through CVS will automatically appear on www.gnu.org.  Using Savannah will also help the GNU Project in other ways.  To set this up, visit http://savannah.gnu.org/.

Please also write an entry or a change for the page
http://www.gnu.org/people/people.html, and mail that to
-email is unavailable- also.  Note that we don't want to talk about proprietary software, so if you have worked on any, please don't mention it here.  Your entry can include a link to your home page provided it fits our usual criteria for what we link to.

Please make sure that the program has an up-to-date entry in our Free Software Directory.  Contact -email is unavailable- for more info about this.

Please talk with -email is unavailable- about creating the mailing lists that you need.  There should be at least one, bug-PROGNAME@gnu.org, for reporting bugs.  Please tell them whether you would like this list to be open to the public or just an alias going to whoever you choose. Also please say whether you would like to have a public archive of the
list.

If there are a few alternative names that might be natural for users to use, let's make all the aliases that might be useful.  If you want these lists to be aliases for lists on your site, that is ok; ask new-gnu to set them up that way.

Some GNU programs have another mailing list, help-PROGNAME@gnu.org, for people to ask other users for help.  And some programs have a list -email is unavailable- for sending announcements to the users.  (These
are often moderated.)  Please think about whether such lists are appropriate for this program; please ask for them if you want them.

When you make a release, please mail an announcement to
-email is unavailable- about the existence of the program.  Include a brief description of the program so people can tell whether they are interested in using it.  The announcement should mention the web pages on www.gnu.org, and say where to get the program by ftp.

new-gnu people, could you please enter Ray Dryden in gnuorg/maintainers, add him to the gnu-prog lists, and send him a copy of maintain.text?

---end copy---

I want to begin getting this thing going.  I intend to use CVS repositories on Savannah for main (most) administration of the Project.

I may seem a nuisance at first, as I am new to the processes of both Gnu/Linux Project and Structure of Savannah Web.

I am not afraid to ask, and may be doing much of same.

Thank you for your time and consideration.
