Hi all,

A lot of people have asked me if there is anything they can do to help out kernel.org. At this point, the number one thing anyone could do to help, and which would be reasonably self-contained a project, would be to help maintain our fork of gitweb:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=git/warthog9/gitweb.git;a=summary

We really need the caching version of gitweb, but it does have a number of problems, including the non-working tarball generator.

Are there an issues-list for the forked gitweb somewhere, or would the first step of people who would want to help be to build such a list?

There's a todo list in the back of my head, I will try and write it up this weekend and get it posted.
