I'm most definetly still interested IOW count me in. I won't be doing
much of the monitoring and bookkeeping, expect for the checking of lwn's
weekly security report against extras. I already get way to much mail as
things are. I'm however "available" for helping out with / reviewing
less then trivial fixes (C and C++ only) and I'm available to fix
packages where the maintainer is not available or not responsive.

I would like to suggest the following procedure for any "help needed (in
any form)" requests:
-send a mail to this list with the "help" request
-if appropriate someone can claim this (assign bz ticket?)
-if appropriate once the fix is in CVS the fixer posts a request for
 a review to this list.

Hans
