+From: address@hidden (GNU Project)
+To: %PACKAGE_MAINTAINERS
+Subject: %PACKAGE_NAME and Automake-related vulnerabilities
+Precedence: bulk
+
+Greetings,
+
+I'm sending you this message on behalf of GNU because as far as we know,
+you are the maintainer(s) of %PACKAGE_NAME. (If you're not maintaining
+it, please reply to let me know.)
+
+Two vulnerabilities related to Automake-generated Makefiles and the dist
+and distcheck target were discovered some time ago. It seemed to me
+that the latest release of %PACKAGE_NAME on ftp.gnu.org was still
+vulnerable to one or both. They are:
+ http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2009-4029
+ http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2012-3386
+
+(If you did make a later release that fixes these issues, don't worry
+about this email, and sorry for the noise. I could not determine
+the status with absolute certainty.)
+
+The issues were fixed in automake releases 1.12.2 and 1.11.6. So the
+simplest way to mitigate them is to regenerate the Makefiles using an
+automake that is at least that new and re-release. If you don't want to
+do that, you can also hack the Makefiles to fix the problem by hand:
+ http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/savannah-hackers/2012-12/msg00049.html
+
+Although these vulnerabilities do not have a high probability of being
+exploited, of course we want GNU software to be safe. So it would be
+good to make a new release, even if it's just to fix these bugs. Of
+course other fixes or features are all to the good.
+
+As usual, aside from this issue, if you have any news or questions
+regarding the package, please let me know at address@hidden
+Thanks for contributing to GNU, and happy hacking.
+
+Karl Berry
+Assistant Chief GNUisance

+gnumaint is a manager for the /gd/gnuorg/maintainers file, the
+official list of GNU packages and maintainers.
+It was written by Jose Marchesi in 2006-07.
+
+You can get listings (see ./gnumaint help list),
+send email to maintainers (./gnumaint help sendemail),
+and receive answers from the maintainers (./gnumaint help recemail).
+The ./Makefile shows sample invocations testing the various features.
+
+The file ./template-active.txt defines the mail message sent. The first
+line is the Subject: header, the rest is the body. The receive function
+looks for the specific string in the Subject:, so don't change it in one
+place without the other.
+
+Lines in the template starting with fmt: are piped through fmt before
+sending.
+
+If any questions/suggestions about the software, please email
address@hidden
+
+todo:
+- check for inconsistent case in maintainers package names.
+- send different msg to people in recentrel.txt.
+
+bugs from last send:
+fsd-by-license did not find gplv3 tar?!
+and what about slib publicdomain? should not have been mailed.
+ditto speex, which was xiph -- shouldn't have been mailed.
+then review mixed msgs to go out -- not tar, not gcc.
+unknown, unconfirmed maintainers
+sort both maintainers and gnupackages by block
+no non-email maintainers in .bypkg
+multiple email fields -> error
+on receipt, have to match any altemail not just primary
+must ignore maintainers without email, not send to empty

+Sample blurbs for sending to new maintainers, to be edited as appropriate.
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------
+[check savannah; if they aren't there, get them to create an account.]
+[a first msg, right after they are appointed]
+
+I added you to the gnu-prog lists. You should have received the welcome
+msgs just before this.
+
+Also, can you please send us a phone number / mailing address /
+alternative email, just to have as backup? We try to collect these for
+all GNU maintainers. Of course we won't publicize the information
+anywhere on the web. If you would prefer to send this info encrypted,
+please let me know.
+
+[for new packages only]
+Also, can you please write a couple of sentences describing your
+package, for use on http://www.gnu.org/manual/blurbs.html?
+
+-------------------------------------------------------------------
+[a second msg, after they reply]
+Thanks for the contact info.
+
+[for replacement maintainers only]
+Please go ahead and update any of the information at the savannah
+project and on the web pages (e.g., remove the looking-for-a-maintainer
+notice :) as needed.
+http://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/html_node/Web-Pages.html talks about
+handling web pages, including a template you can use if you like.
+
+If any questions or problems with the GNU infrastructure, please feel
+free to email us (or address@hidden, as mentioned in the welcome email).
+
+Happy hacking,

+From: address@hidden (Brandon Invergo)
+To:
+Cc: address@hidden, address@hidden
+Subject: maintaining
+
+I hereby appoint you as the new maintainer of
+Thanks for volunteering.
+
+Being a package maintainer is a relationship between you personally
+and the GNU Project. The maintainer or maintainers are the ones who
+take the overall responsibility for the work done on the package, on
+behalf of the GNU Project.
+
+If you recruit others to contribute to the package (and some packages
+have hundreds of contributors), they work under your supervision. You
+can delegate some of your authority to them, but you can also take it
+back. Please make sure they don't come to think that you have ceded
+your authority to them and that they no longer have to follow your
+directions.
+
+The GNU Project will sometimes need to talk with you, sometimes
+privately, so please make sure we know a personal email address which
+you read frequently. We normally publish these email addresses in the
+Free Software Directory. We would also like to know other ways to get
+in touch with you if email fails; we do not give them out.
+
+If you ever want to step down as maintainer, or would like someone
+else to replace you, please talk with address@hidden about it.
+When a package has no maintainer, we need to know about the problem so
+we can look for a new one. The program remains a GNU package
+unless/until the GNU project decides to drop ties with it.
+
+Likewise, if you think someone else should join you as co-maintainer
+or take over from you as maintainer, please suggest that to us, since
+we will need to establish a relationship with that person. A person
+cannot become a GNU package maintainer except by being appointed by
+the GNU Project.
+
+Your appointment as maintainer is provisional at first. We'll make
+your appointment full and permanent when we see that you're doing the
+job. Usually that means we see that you've made a release properly,
+with the changes that the next release ought to have. However, if
+making a proper release involves a lot of work, and will therefore
+take a long time, we could appoint you full maintainer when we see you
+have made a good start on the job.
+
+Please tell us the first time you're about to make a release, so we
+can guide you on doing it properly following our conventions.
+
+The GNU maintainer information in https://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/
+describes a lot of procedures for GNU maintainers. It 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 address@hidden, which is a list of a few other GNU
+maintainers who have offered to answer questions for new maintainers.
+
+We will add you to the gnu-prog mailing list, a moderated list for
+announcements to GNU maintainers. We will also add you to the
+gnu-prog-discuss list, which can be used for discussion among GNU
+maintainers, but whether to stay on the list is up to you.
+
+We strongly recommend using ftp.gnu.org to make distributions
+available. Please see the GNU maintainers guide for the procedure,
+https://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/html_node/Automated-FTP-Uploads.html.
+When that is set up, you'll be able to do uploads yourself. If you
+want to also distribute the package from a site of your own, that is
+fine. To use some other site instead of ftp.gnu.org is acceptable,
+provided it allows connections from anyone anywhere.
+
+Please write or update the web pages about the program, to put in
+https://www.gnu.org/software/PROGNAME. 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
+https://www.gnu.org/software/PROGNAME 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
+https://www.gnu.org/server/fsf-html-style-sheet.html. See also
+https://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/html_node/Web-Pages.html.
+
+We ask that you register your package on Savannah, at least to maintain
+your package's web pages. This is independent of where the actual
+program sources are hosted (although we encourage you to use Savannah
+for that too). This makes it easy to update the web pages, since you
+will have access to a CVS repository for the web pages and can update it
+as you like. Using Savannah will help the GNU Project in other ways,
+too. To set this up, visit https://savannah.gnu.org/.
+
+Please also write an entry or a change for the page
+https://www.gnu.org/people/people.html, and mail that to
address@hidden 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 update the program's entry in our Free Software Directory. See
+https://www.gnu.org/help/directory.html#adding-entries for help.
+
+Mailing lists: Your package should already have a mailing list
address@hidden for reporting bugs. If not, please create it--see
+https://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/html_node/Mail.html for the details of
+creating mailing lists.
+
+Some GNU programs with many users have another mailing list,
address@hidden, for people to ask other users for help. If
+your program has many users, you should create such a list for it.
+For a fairly new program, which doesn't have a large user base yet, it
+is better not to bother with this.
+
+Please post announcements of new releases of the program to
address@hidden 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
+releases, normally ftp.gnu.org.
+
+You can also send announcements to a special list address@hidden
+for your program if you think that is warranted. (This list should be
+moderated.)
+
+Please also mention release announcements in the news feed of the
+savannah project site, <https://savannah.gnu.org/projects/PROGNAME>.
+The news feeds from the GNU project are aggregated at
+<https://planet.gnu.org/>.
+
+For more details about writing and publicizing announcements, please see
+https://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/html_node/Announcements.html.
+
+For details on all policies and recommendations for GNU packages,
+please see the GNU maintainers information, at

+[This is generic text to send to prospective (co-)maintainers, that is,
+ before they are appointed. Of course the intro text should be adjusted
+ to suit the case at hand. The crucial thing is that all maintainers
+ must explicitly agree to follow GNU policies.]
+
+Below is our general info on policies and conventions for maintaining
+GNU programs. Please take a look; assuming you're ok with them, we'll
+be glad to officially appoint you the new maintainer.
+
+========================================================================
+Here's the explanation of what it means for a program to be a GNU
+package, which also explains at a general level the responsibilities
+of a GNU package maintainer.
+
+GNU is not simply a collection of useful programs. We started the GNU
+Project with a specific overall goal: to create a free software
+operating system, the GNU System. To keep the GNU system technically
+coherent, we make sure that the parts fit well together.
+
+Thus, becoming a GNU maintainer is a somewhat formal process, since
+affiliating with the GNU project as a maintainer means you must agree to
+work (within the confines of the maintenance) with the GNU project's
+mission for software freedom.
+
+Here is the basic explanation.
+
+======================================================================
+Making a program GNU software means that its developers and the GNU
+project agree that "This program is part of the GNU project, released
+under the aegis of GNU"--and say so in the program.
+
+The GNU Project appoints package maintainers--initially the main
+developers, or those of them who wish to be appointed--to take
+responsibility for the package on the behalf of the GNU project. We
+hope it won't happen, but if they step down, we look for other
+maintainers. The program remains a GNU package unless/until the GNU
+project decides to drop ties with it.
+
+Being a GNU package means we normally put the program on ftp.gnu.org
+(although we can instead refer to your choice of ftp site, as long as
+it allows connections from anyone anywhere).
+
+The official site for the GNU package should be on www.gnu.org,
+specifically in /software/PROGRAMNAME. Whenever you give out the URL
+for the package home page, you would give this address. It is ok to
+use another site for secondary topics, such as pages meant for people
+helping develop the package, and for running data bases. (We can make
+an exception, and put the web pages somewhere else, if there is a
+pressing reason.)
+
+It means that the developers agree to pay attention to making the
+program work well with the rest of the GNU system--and conversely that
+the GNU project will encourage other GNU maintainers to pay attention
+to making their programs fit in well with it.
+
+Just what it means to make programs work well together is mainly a
+practical matter that depends on what the program does. But there are
+a few general principles. Certain parts of the GNU coding standards
+directly affect the consistency of the whole system. These include
+the standards for configuring and building a program, and the
+standards for command-line options. It is important to make all GNU
+programs follow these standards, where they are applicable.
+
+Another important GNU standard is that GNU programs should come with
+documentation in Texinfo format. That is the GNU standard
+documentation format, and it can be converted automatically into
+various other formats. You can use DocBook format or another suitable
+format for the documentation sources, as long as converting it
+automatically into Texinfo gives good results.
+
+If a GNU program wants to be extensible, it should use Guile
+(https://www.gnu.org/software/guile/guile.html) as the programming
+language for extensibility, if possible. For some programs there's a
+reason to do things differently, but please use Guile if that is
+feasible.
+
+A GNU program should use the latest version of the license that the
+GNU Project recommends--not just any free software license. For most
+packages, this means releasing under the GNU GPL, "version 3 or later."
+
+A GNU program should not recommend use of any non-free program, and it
+should not refer the user to any non-free documentation for free
+software. The campaign for free documentation to go with free
+software is a major focus of the GNU project (see
+https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-doc.html); to show that we are
+serious about it, we must not undermine our position by recommending
+documentation that isn't free.
+
+Occasionally there are issues of terminology which are important for
+the success of the GNU project as a whole. So we expect maintainers
+of GNU programs to follow them. For example, the documentation files
+and comments in the program should speak of GNU/Linux systems, rather
+than calling the whole system "Linux", and should use the term "free
+software" rather than "open source". Since a GNU program is released
+under the auspices of GNU, it should not say anything that contradicts
+the GNU Project's views.
+
+For a program to be GNU software does not require transferring
+copyright to the FSF; that is a separate question. If you transfer
+the copyright to the FSF, the FSF will enforce the GPL for the program
+if someone violates it; if you keep the copyright, enforcement will be
+up to you.
+
+As the GNU maintainer of the package, please make sure to stay in
+touch with the GNU Project. If we come across a problem relating to
+the package, we need to tell you about it, and to discuss with you how
+to solve it. Sometimes we will need to ask you to work with other
+maintainers to solve a problem that involves using multiple packages
+together. This probably will happen less than once a year, but please
+make sure we can contact you in case it does happen.
+
+Finally, if you decide to step down as maintainer at any time, please
+inform us (see https://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/html_node/Stepping-Down.html).

+
+Notes on making the spotlight feature for the Free Software Supporter.
+The general idea is to make markdown text and send it to
address@hidden, around the 23rd of each month.
+
+This is all pretty randomly messy. The process never seemed worth
+refining, in light of who runs it and how often and that the final
+result needs to be carefully read anyway. Of course all aspects can be
+tinkered with ad infinitum.
+
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Top level outline, with more about the prerequisites following:
+
+1. Run the hacky little script below, call it gnubytime for the sake of
+example, which reads a previously-saved rsync listing of
+ftp.gnu.org::gnu, call that fp.gnu for the sake of example. As in:
+ gnubytime fp.gnu >/tmp/s0
+
+2. Throw away everything after the latest release from the previous
+month, which just needs to be tracked in a working file somewhere. For
+example, in February 2015 the latest release was parallel-20150222, so
+March 2015 should include everything after that.
+
+3. Reduce the list to just unique package names, as in:
+sed 's,^.*/,,' /tmp/s0 | sort -u >/tmp/s1
+
+4. Remove things we don't want to list here, such as aspell
+dictionaries, test releases (wrongly) put on ftp.gnu.org,
+and plenty more.
+
+5. Look at the info-gnu mailing list archives from
+ftp://lists.gnu.org/info-gnu/ for the current month and the previous
+month for releases not on ftp.gnu.org. Add those by hand to /tmp/s1
+(and resort). gnupg and related are the most likely. Looking at the
+Subject: lines suffices.
+
+6. Convert the result to markdown with the one-line gnu2mdwn script below:
+gnu2mdwn /tmp/s1 >/tmp/s2
+
+7. Check that the result is actually correct, e.g., does not have version
+numbers in the urls, has correct package names in the urls. Especially
+when there are dashes in either the package name or release version.
+
+8. Look at ./spotlight.tmpl in this womb/gnumaint directory. The markdown
+list from /tmp/s2 goes at the top. Also replace the NN and DD and YY in
+the first line.
+
+9. The list of people to welcome as new maintainers or as maintaining
+new packages comes from fp:~karl/src/gnumaint/activity-report.txt. That
+file needs to be maintained in place, by hand, whenever a maintainer or
+package is added or removed, as noted in /gd/gnuorg/README.
+
+10. Send to the FSF as above.
+
+11. Update the new "latest release" wherever that info is stored.
+And, although not strictly necessary, keeping an archive of all
+spotlights as sent can be useful for quickly looking at past entries.
+
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------
+In step 1, the rsync listing can be generated like this:
+
+outfile=fp.gnu # or whatever
+excludes="--exclude=*.sig \
+ --exclude=video/TIME --exclude=find.txt.gz --exclude=ls-l*.txt.gz \
+ --exclude=gnu-keyring.gpg"
+rsync --no-h -r $excludes fp:/srv/data/ftp-mirror/ftp/ \
+ | egrep -v '^[dl]' \
+ >$outfile.new
+...
+mv $outfile.new $outfile
+
+By the way, this same rsync listing is intended to be the source for the
+ftplisting check in gm-check.pl.
+
+Also, this same rsync listing can be the source for updating release
+information in gnupackages.txt, as they come through. For that
+
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Still in step 1, the "hacky little script" (gnubytime) is as follows.
+
+#!/usr/bin/env perl
+# ftp releases by time,via rsync listing.
+# -rw-r--r-- 918 2002/01/14 14:28:56 .message
+
+$ARGV[0] = "/u/karl/sys/ftp/fp.gnu" unless @ARGV;
+
+while (<>) {
+ next if / -> /;
+ next if /\.(diff|xdelta)\./;
+ next if /snapshot\.pkg/;
+ next if /\.darwin/;
+ next if /-latest/;
+ next if /\.sig/;
+ next unless /\.[tj]ar\./;
+ my (undef,undef,$date,undef,$pkg) = split (" "); # rsync
+ # my ($date,undef,$pkg) = split (" "); # ftp
+ $date =~ tr,-/,,d;
+ $pkg{$pkg} = $date;
+}
+
+for my $p (sort { $pkg{$b} <=> $pkg{$a} } keys %pkg) {
+ ($pfile = $p) =~ s/\.tar\..*$//;
+ print "$pkg{$p}\t$pfile\n";
+}
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------
+In step 6, the gnu2mdwn script is:
+
+#!/bin/sh
+sed \
+ -e 's,\(.*\)-\([^-]*\),* [\1-\2](http://www.gnu.org/software/\1/),' \
+ "$@"

+Notes on what to do when a package becomes unmaintained or
+decommissioned.
+
+unmaintained:
+ for the new maintainer to do: look at mailing list archives,
+ any todo files, good to make quick release.
+ try writing mlist if there is one.
+ update: package web page - takeaction.html - www.gnu.org home page
+ on savannah: status=orphaned; note in summary; post job.
+ (in more detail, see fp:/gd/gnuorg/README)
+
+decommissioned:
+ maintainers - activity-report.txt
+ - gnupackages.rec,pkgblurbs.rec -> oldpackages.txt;
+ then regenerate autopackage lists (see Makefile and howto-commission.txt)
+ - address@hidden ftp.gnu.org dir to old-gnu
+ - lists: advertised=no, mv domains/gnu.org ...
+ - project home page: Add a prominent notice stating that the package is
decommissioned.
+ - add to list of old packages on software.html - webpages
+ - savannah: status=orphaned; note in summary.
+
+When a maintainer resigns, implicitly or explicitly, the story is
+similar; see /gd/gnuorg/README.

+Precedence: bulk
+
+Greetings,
+
+I'm sending you this message on behalf of the GNU Project because
+according to the FSF's records, you are the maintainer(s) of
+%PACKAGE_NAME, which is supposed to be an FSF-copyrighted package.
+
+We would like to gather information on any code or other material in
+your package that is *not* copyrighted by the FSF. Could you please
+reply to this message (which should go to address@hidden) and let
+us know? That is, one of:
+
+1) There is no non-FSF-copyrighted material in %PACKAGE_NAME.
+
+2) There is non-FSF-copyrighted code included in %PACKAGE_NAME,
+ per the procedure described in the External Libraries node
+ of the maintainers' guide:
+ http://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/html_node/External-Libraries.html
+
+3) Something else.
+
+Please include any and all relevant details.
+
+(Aside from this, if you have any news or questions regarding the
+package, please let us know at address@hidden)
+
+Thanks for contributing to GNU, and happy hacking.
+

+GNU package maintenance: %PACKAGE_LIST
+
+Have I reached %MAINTAINER_NAME?
+(My apologies if this message reaches you in error.)
+
+fmt:I'm sending you this message on behalf of the GNU Project because
+fmt:you're listed as the maintainer of the GNU %PLURAL_PACKAGE %PACKAGE_LIST.
+fmt:We would like to verify that you're still there, and still reachable at
+fmt:the address we have, %MAINTAINER_EMAIL.
+
+If all of that is correct, please just reply to this message.
+That will confirm that you got it, that you're still maintaining
+%PLURAL_THIS_PACKAGE, and that the address we used is still good.
+
+If you are no longer maintaining the %PLURAL_PACKAGE, or your preferred
+email address has changed, or there's anything else you think we should
+know, please send mail to address@hidden so we can update our
+records.
+
+We'd also like to collect package maintainers' postal addresses and
+phone numbers, so that if email addresses stop working, we have some
+backup. Would you please mail that contact information to
address@hidden so we can note it down?
+
+If you have any news or questions regarding your GNU %PLURAL_PACKAGE,
+please let us know. address@hidden is the address for that too.
+
+Thanks for contributing to GNU, and happy hacking.
+
+Karl Berry
+Assistant Chief GNUisance

+From: address@hidden (GNU Project)
+To: %PACKAGE_MAINTAINERS
+Bcc: address@hidden
+Subject: release of GNU %PACKAGE_NAME
+
+Greetings,
+
+We're sending you this message on behalf of the GNU Project because as
+far as we know, you are the maintainer(s) of %PACKAGE_NAME. (If you're
+not maintaining it, please just reply to let us know.)
+
+As far as we've been able to discern, %PACKAGE_NAME
+has gone several years without a new (official) release. If you have in
+fact made a recent release, please let us know, and sorry for the noise.
+We could not determine the status with absolute certainty.
+
+Otherwise ... it has always been a basic goal of GNU that its
+constituent packages be actively developed and have releases from time
+to time. Without a release, we periodically ping the maintainer(s) to see
+how things are going. So, could you please reply to this message with a
+response to the following questions? Please include all and any
+relevant information, better too much than too little.
+
+1) Can you estimate, even roughly, when a new release will be made?
+
+2) Have you been able to make progress (fixing bugs, updating
+infrastructure, adding features, ...) since the last release, or since
+our last contact with you?
+
+3) Are there technical, legal, or other barriers to making a release?
+We'd like to help if we can.
+
+4) Other comments?
+
+In general, if you have any news or questions regarding the package,
+please let us know at address@hidden Thanks for contributing to
+GNU, and happy hacking.
+
+Brandon & Karl (GNUisances)

+NN new GNU releases in the last month (as of Month DD, 20YY):
+
+[[[markdown list of releases goes here]]]
+
+For announcements of most new GNU releases, subscribe to the info-gnu
+mailing list: <http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnu>.
+
+To download: nearly all GNU software is available from
+<http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/>, or preferably one of its mirrors from
+<http://www.gnu.org/prep/ftp.html>. You can use the url
+<http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/> to be automatically redirected to a
+(hopefully) nearby and up-to-date mirror.
+
+This month, we welcome [[[list from activity-report.txt]]].
+
+A number of GNU packages, as well as the GNU operating system as a
+whole, are looking for maintainers and other assistance: please see
+<http://www.gnu.org/server/takeaction.html#unmaint> if you'd like to
+help. The general page on how to help GNU is at
+<http://www.gnu.org/help/help.html>.
+
+If you have a working or partly working program that you'd like
+to offer to the GNU project as a GNU package, see
+<http://www.gnu.org/help/evaluation.html>.
+
+As always, please feel free to write to us at <address@hidden>,
+with any GNUish questions or suggestions for future installments.

+From: address@hidden (GNU Project)
+To: %PACKAGE_MAINTAINERS
+Bcc: address@hidden
+Subject: release of GNU %PACKAGE_NAME
+Reply-to: address@hidden
+
+Greetings,
+
+We're sending you this message on behalf of the GNU Project because as
+far as we know, you are the maintainer(s) of %PACKAGE_NAME. (If you're
+not maintaining it, please just reply to let us know.)
+
+As far as we've been able to discern, %PACKAGE_NAME
+has gone several years without a new (official) release. If you have in
+fact made a recent release, please let us know, and sorry for the noise.
+We could not determine the status with absolute certainty.
+
+Otherwise ... it has always been a basic goal of GNU that its
+constituent packages be actively developed and have releases from time
+to time. Without a release, we periodically ping the maintainer(s) to see
+how things are going. So, could you please reply to this message with a
+response to the following questions? Please include all and any
+relevant information, better too much than too little.
+
+1) Can you estimate, even roughly, when a new release will be made?
+
+2) Have you been able to make progress (fixing bugs, updating
+infrastructure, adding features, ...) since the last release, or since
+our last contact with you?
+
+3) Are there technical, legal, or other barriers to making a release?
+We'd like to help if we can.
+
+4) Other comments?
+
+In general, if you have any news or questions regarding the package,
+please let us know at address@hidden Thanks for contributing to
+GNU, and happy hacking.
+
+Brandon & Karl (GNUisances)

+From: address@hidden (GNU Project)
+To: %PACKAGE_MAINTAINERS
+Bcc: address@hidden
+Subject: release of GNU %PACKAGE_NAME
+
+Greetings,
+
+We're sending you this message on behalf of the GNU Project because as
+far as we know, you are the maintainer(s) of %PACKAGE_NAME. (If you're
+not maintaining it, please just reply to let us know.)
+
+As far as we've been able to discern, %PACKAGE_NAME
+has gone several years without a new (official) release. If you have in
+fact made a recent release, please let us know, and sorry for the noise.
+We could not determine the status with absolute certainty. Please
+note that the best ways for us to be aware of your releases are making
+the release available on ftp.gnu.org and making release announcements
+via address@hidden and your Savannah project's "News" section (which
+shows up on the Planet GNU RSS feed).
+
+Otherwise ... it has always been a basic goal of GNU that its
+constituent packages be actively developed and have releases from time
+to time. Without a release, we periodically ping the maintainer(s) to see
+how things are going. So, could you please reply to this message with a
+response to the following questions? Please include all and any
+relevant information, better too much than too little.
+
+1) Can you estimate, even roughly, when a new release will be made?
+
+2) Have you been able to make progress (fixing bugs, updating
+infrastructure, adding features, ...) since the last release, or since
+our last contact with you?
+
+3) Are there technical, legal, or other barriers to making a release?
+We'd like to help if we can.
+
+3b) Do you have any difficulties in making your package work with
+other GNU packages or are there any bugs in other GNU packages that
+affect your software?
+
+4) Other comments?
+
+In general, if you have any news or questions regarding the package,
+please let us know at address@hidden Thanks for contributing to
+GNU, and happy hacking.
+
+Brandon & Karl (GNUisances)

+
+Notes on what an "assistant GNUisance" needs to do when a new package is
+officially dubbed. Only rms can dub a new package; he sends mail to
address@hidden (which all and only such assistants should be on), and
+other recipients.
+
+When a replacement or co-maintainer for an existing package is dubbed,
+most of the below is unnecessary: just add the person to
+gnu-prog[-discuss] (item 1), and to the maintainers file (item 4), and
+send them the post-dubbing message (item 10).
+
+1. Add the new maintainer to gnu-prog, gnu-prog-discuss, and
+gnu-community-private right away, as stated at the end of the dubbing
+message.
+https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/admin/gnu-prog/members/add
+https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/admin/gnu-prog-discuss/members/add
+https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/admin/gnu-community-private/members/add
+
+2. Sometimes the package identifier is not completely clear from rms's
+message, especially if it has not gone through the normal evaluation
+process. The identifier should be all lowercase (no exceptions!), no
+spaces, not start with "gnu" unless there is good reason for it, and be
+reasonably descriptive and unique in the universe of free software (at
+least). The identifier is the common key linking the package in many
+disparate places, so it is worth a little time and discussion with the
+new maintainer if need be to make it good. rms does not generally need
+to be involved in that detail.
+
+3. A package can have a "mundane name" that includes spaces, capitals,
+etc. Sometimes that dispels fears the new maintainer might have.
+
+4. Once the package identifier is settled, things can proceed. Add the
+new maintainer to /gd/gnuorg/maintainers, with the new package name.
+See /gd/gnuorg/README for editing specifics. Update activity-report.txt
+at the same time, as described in that README.
+
+5. In womb/gnumaint, add the entry to rec/gnupackages.rec. The only entries
+likely to require some thought are the doc-category and doc-summary.
+It can always be fixed later, but usually isn't, so it's worth thinking
+about. Whatever else, do not commit a placeholder or other fake
+entries, since it will get propagated to www.gnu.org below. The doc-url
+will typically be "none" for a new package.
+
+6. Also in womb/gnumaint, add an entry to rec/pkgblurbs.rec. Here it can
+be a three-line placeholder:
+ id: newpkgid_blurb
+ package: newpkgid
+ blurb: null (newpkg/YYYYMMDD)
+We'll ask the new maintainer for a blurb in the post email, below.
+
+7. Items 5 and 6 should be done right away, as otherwise consistency
+checks will start to fail (as soon as /gd/gnuorg/maintainers is
+updated). Commit these changes.
+
+8. Regenerate the allgnupkgs.html et al. web page includes here:
+ make gnupackages.txt
+ make html-update # writes into www checkout at ${gw}
+ make html-diff # cvs diff of the generated files
+ cd $gw && cvs commit ...
+It's important to do the diff and actually look at the output, to ensure
+both that the files have not been hand-edited on the www side, and that
+the generation actually did what is expected.
+
+9. The savannah people should ensure that the new package is marked gnu,
+if it already exists on savannah, or accept it. And for
+replacement/co-maintainers, they should ensure that the new person is
+made an admin of the package, if it exists.
+
+10. Send the post-appointment email from the template temail-4post.txt,
+suitably edited.

+
+The gm script is about performing various GNU maintainer/package
+operations. Run gm --help for a list. What's been done is what has
+been needed in practice, rather than any kind of theoretical list of
+what might be useful.
+
+gm combines information from several files. The most important are
+./gnupackages.txt (maintained in the CVS here, can be updated whenever
+and by whomever) and the fp:/gd/gnuorg/maintainers (maintained on
+fencepost, in RCS, and should only be modified if you have explicit
+permission from rms to do so).
+
+For a list of all the files needed to do the various jobs, see the
+variables given at the top the gm file. You yourself need to set up
+symlinks to them as needed, and arrange your own cron jobs (or whatever)
+to ensure your versions stay current.
+
+Perhaps the most frequent operation is updating the allgnupkgs.html on
+www.gnu.org. If you set the envvar gw to the path of your www checkout,
+running make update-html will do this. (It is just running three "gm
+generate" invocations, no magic involved, so go ahead and do it
+individually as needed.)
+
+The Makefile has a variety of other current and historical tasks, so
+it is good to peruse it, adapt it, update it.
+
+Happy maintaining.
+
+P.S. The gnumaint script was a first attempt at this job, dealing with
+the first mass email we did, ca.2007; see gnumaint.README.

+The primary purpose of the Free Software Directory is to catalog free
+software projects, so the project is the central and most complex
+entity represented in the database. The most important attributes of
+a project are stored in the @code{directory_project} table
+(@pxref{directory_project}).
+
+Projects are organized in categories (@pxref{Category}). The
+information about which projects is filed in which category is stored
+in the @code{directory_project_categories} table
+(@pxref{directory_project_categories}).
+
+A project can be implemented using one or more computer languages
+(@pxref{Computer Language}). Which project is implemented in which
+language is stored in the @code{directory_project_computer_languages}
+(@pxref{directory_project_computer_languages}).
+
+To facilitate the search function, one or more keywords
+(@pxref{Keyword}) could be associated with a project. Those
+associations are stored in the @code{directory_project_keywords} table
+(@pxref{directory_project_keywords}).
+
+A project can relate to one or more other projects in the Free
+Software Directory. Those relations are stored in the
address@hidden table
+(@pxref{directory_project_related}).
+
+Various public network resources (@pxref{Network Resource}) could be
+published for a project.

address@hidden Category, Computer Language, Project, Essential Concepts
address@hidden Category
+
+Project entries in the Free Software Directory are organized in
+categories. Category is a general topic of some sort (for example,
+Science, Education, Audio, etc.) that classifies a project. A single
+project can be filed in more than one category.
+
+Categories are organized to form a tree hierarchy, where every
+category (except one) must have exactly one parent category. There is
+a single category with slug @code{index} and name @code{Top} that has
+no parent and serves as a tree root. All other categories have the
address@hidden category as it's parent, either directly or indirectly.
+
+Categories are represented in the table @code{directory_category}
+(@pxref{directory_category}). Assosiations between projects and
+categories (information about which project is filled in which
+category) are stored in the table @code{directory_project_categories}

+
+Over time, a typical software project (@pxref{Project}) makes one or

+versions, but one version belongs exactly to one project. The most
+important attributes of a version are stored in the
address@hidden table (@pxref{directory_version}).

+Each version could provide it's own set of interfaces
+(@pxref{Interface}). The information about what interfaces are

address@hidden Network Resource
+
+A typical free software project publishes various kinds of network
+resources -- like homepage, mailing list archives or newsgroups. Most
+of those various kinds of resources can be addressed to a specific
+audience. For example, a project could use two different mailing
+lists -- one intended for general users and another for developers.
+Such network resources are represented in the table
address@hidden

+#
+# This file records information about GNU packages on a per-package
+# basis, *not* including the maintainers (that's in
+# /gd/gnuorg/maintainers). There is nothing private in this file.
+#
+# Since some things are unique to the package and other things are
+# unique to the maintainer(s), it seems cleanest to have two files.
+#
+# This file is in GNU Recutils' format, meaning it is easiest to query
+# the content via that software. This file contains one record type,
+# Package, and uses the package name as the record key.
+#
+# Info/constraints about the fields:
+# - The package name should always be all-lowercase.
+#
+# - When mundane_name is not specified, default is to capitalize the first
+# letter of the package identifier.
+#
+# - Default for download_url is http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/PKGNAME.
+#
+# - A doc_url value of "none" means no specific documentation page (home
+# page is used).
+# "htmlxref" means to extract a list of additional manuals from the
+# Texinfo htmlxref.cnf file.
+# Otherwise, it can be a url, which can be used together with htmlxref,
+# but multiple explicit urls or other combinations are not supported.
+#
+# - doc_category values are in doc-categories.txt (following FSD).
+# (doc stuff is used to generate gnu.org/manual.)
+#
+# - each package should always have an activity_status
+#
+# - allowed activity_status values:
+# ok;
+# newmaint,newcomaint (newly-appointed);
+# newpkg (newly-dubbed);
+# nomaint (no maintainer);
+# container (doesn't get released);
+# subpkg (released as part of another package);
+# stable (no current release, but none needed);
+# stale (needs release);
+# moribund (needs release, but not likely to ever get one).
+# alpha (alpha-only releases so far)
+#
+# - most activity statuses must have an associated date of last
+# activity
+#
+# - as a consistency check, the last activity should always be at
+# least the last release date
+#
+# The home page is not a field because that *always* is (should be)
+# /software/PACKAGE, even if that does nothing but redirect. Any other
+# method leads to redundant (hence inevitably inconsistent) information.
+#
+# Finally, this file as a whole is more or less sorted by package
+# identifier, for human convenience. However, software reading this
+# file should accept any order of packages or fields.
+
+# See the file pkg-descriptor.rec in this directory for the full

+# This file is maintained in the CVS repository of GNU womb,
+# http://cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewvc/gnumaint/?root=womb
+#
+# Info/constraints about the fields:
+# - The package name should always be all-lowercase.
+#
+# - When mundane_name is not specified, default is to capitalize the first
+# letter of the package identifier.
+#
+# - Default for download_url is http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/PKGNAME.
+#
+# - A doc_url value of "none" means no specific documentation page (home
+# page is used).
+# "htmlxref" means to extract a list of additional manuals from the
+# Texinfo htmlxref.cnf file.
+# Otherwise, it can be a url, which can be used together with htmlxref,
+# but multiple explicit urls or other combinations are not supported.
+#
+# - doc_category values are in doc-categories.txt (following FSD).
+# (doc stuff is used to generate gnu.org/manual.)
+#
+# - each package should always have an activity_status
+#
+# - allowed activity_status values:
+# ok;
+# newmaint,newcomaint (newly-appointed);
+# newpkg (newly-dubbed);
+# nomaint (no maintainer);
+# container (doesn't get released);
+# subpkg (released as part of another package);
+# stable (no current release, but none needed);
+# stale (needs release);
+# moribund (needs release, but not likely to ever get one).
+# alpha (alpha-only releases so far)
+#
+# - most activity statuses must have an associated date of last
+# activity
+#
+# - as a consistency check, the last activity should always be at
+# least the last release date
+#
+# The home page is not a field because that *always* is (should be)
+# /software/PACKAGE, even if that does nothing but redirect. Any other
+# method leads to redundant (hence inevitably inconsistent) information.
+#
+# Finally, this file as a whole is more or less sorted by package
+# identifier, for human convenience. However, software reading this
+# file should accept any order of packages or fields.

+
+RELEASES
+
+For announcements of most new GNU releases, subscribe to the info-gnu
+mailing list: <https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnu>.
+
+To download: nearly all GNU software is available from
+<https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/>, or preferably one of its mirrors from
+<https://www.gnu.org/prep/ftp.html>. You can use the url
+<https://ftpmirror.gnu.org/> to be automatically redirected to a
+(hopefully) nearby and up-to-date mirror.
+
+This month, we welcome NEWMAINT.
+
+A number of GNU packages, as well as the GNU operating system as a
+whole, are looking for maintainers and other assistance: please see
+<https://www.gnu.org/server/takeaction.html#unmaint> if you'd like to
+help. The general page on how to help GNU is at
+<https://www.gnu.org/help/help.html>.
+
+If you have a working or partly working program that you'd like
+to offer to the GNU project as a GNU package, see
+<https://www.gnu.org/help/evaluation.html>.
+
+As always, please feel free to write to us at <address@hidden>
+with any GNUish questions or suggestions for future installments.

+Subject: maintaining GNU %PACKAGE_NAME?
+Reply-to: address@hidden
+
+Greetings,
+
+To the best of our knowledge, you are the maintainer of the
+GNU %PACKAGE_NAME package. Unfortunately, it seems we have lost
+contact with you. We don't know whether you are still working
+on the program or even whether you are still programming at all.
+
+Could you please reply to this message and let us know if you are still
+working on the package? If we cannot regain contact with you (we will
+also try to find a phone number for you), we will need to find another
+maintainer for the package.
+
+Thank you,
+rms / karl
