Nice,

>From the Dev side of Arch, count with me, though I am not Pacman
Developer, but I do know pacman and I could spend some of my time on
this project.

I did a page several weeks ago [1], feel free to complement it with
the info according to Arch and we have to send the application to GSoC
soon..

Drop me a mail anything you need.
