Thanks, that (encourage development, submissions and requests, even
from non participants) is what I hope too.

I was setting up practically the same thing as a new "contact us"
page. You are right, though: the submission form must have an explicit
link to that page saying "if we forgot any field, or sw category,
please let us know <here>". I'll add it!

Ach, I didn't do it, did I? Too sleepy, I guess: yes, that text must
be added too, thanks

OK, great. Remember that, especially with relatively little scripts like vacuum,
we can host both pages and source code on the web site (I say this
because I received both the two "dummy" entries from you, and the real
vacuum one, but with no URL for source code)

        Ciao,
