Hey guys,
following packages i would like to see in core:

pending signoffs and move to base:
initscripts (showstopper!)?
Bump to 2008.03-3 with the last fix for correct udev startup.
/dev/pts and /dev/shm are created earlier in rc.sysinit which causes double 
creating it and causes errors thrown to console.

udev-118-7 (showstopper!)?
waiting for signoff, load-modules.sh needed a small fix.

e2fsprogs?
waiting for signoff on x86_64

ntfs-3g?
waiting for signoff on x86_64

grub?
it would add gpt support
http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/9864
which adds macbook support and greater sizes as 2TB support
waiting for signoff

cryptsetup?
waiting for signoff, Thomas is the only one using it!

klibc-module-init-tools?
signed off, waiting for new mkinitcpio or can this move in without mkinitcpio?

klibc-extras?
signed off, waiting for new mkinitcpio or can this move in without mkinitcpio?

kbd/klibc-kbd/mkinitcpio?
mkinitcpio needs a small fix in resume hook.
kbd and klibc-kbd waiting for signoff and depend on new mkinitcpio.
http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/9862
Roman wants to fix this in the evening.

perl?
Any progress? When do you want to move it to core? Any date planned?

delayed package moves due to rebuilds and issues:
gcc
build-toolchain
libtool

any other comments?

greetings
tpowa
