| Who is contrib maintainer anyways?

Anyone and all.


| I did upload something, and it didn't work,
| so I wrote to christian, but he has other things to do,
| so I would like to ask who is the person who can work out with me the  
| packages?

Christian is currently on holiday, so that leaves me.  What's up?

| ps: I thought noarch is for interpreted languages, so e.g.  
| squirrelmail would be a classical noarch package, right?

Currently the internal scripts do not support it and I do not want to spend
time on rewriting them as the use of noarch doesn't really add anything(1).

Please use the normal arch instead.


1) 
* noarch does not save you build time.  You still have to build the package.
  In the event that there are serveral architechtures, noarch package
  *could* save some time as you would only need to build them on one.  In
  practical use though, packages that could be noarch are small and takes
  very little time to build.
* noarch is extra work for you as developer.  You need to explicitly add a
  line to the .spec file to have a package built as noarch.
