Son of Sunsite

Mark Hood writes " Eric S. Raymond (where does he get the time to do all this?) has a new project - "an open-source distributed archiving system for use at large software archive sites". Basically it's a web-based catalog, with full details of packages, files etc which ought to make large archives (eg Sunsite) more maintainable. It's a great idea - and apparantly more urgent than I though, as ESR believes Sunsite will become unmaintainable by the end of this year. The Trove Project is currently in the design phase, but it's the sort of thing that benefits everyone, so pitch in if you can help! "
