my todo list for the next 3 months:

1. Security
  
  move www.freebsd.org to a new machine with better security
  (jail, firewall, no user cgi scripts)

2. Search

  find a replacement for freewais. While freewais is doing
  95% of the job, the missing 4% are sometimes annoying.
  I prefer the Altavista Search Developer Kit, but I don't know
  if we can get a free license from Altavista/Compaq. A commercially
  license is to expensive. 
  
  
3. internal documentation

  write a FreeBSD webmaster FAQ
	- FreeBSD web server architecture
	- the running services (cgi scripts, databases)
	- administration and maintaince scripts, configuration files etc.
	- ...

there are some minor tasks, e.g. fixing the slow portindex perl script
or replace commercial.raw with commercial.xml


FreeBSD is driven by developers. There is no boss, core team or
webmaster who says `do this!' If you have a good idea, want to
implement and test it, and it is consensus to do it, just go.
