Hi Brandon,

    I noticed that GSRC is in need of a maintainer and I would like to
    volunteer for that job.

Thanks much for writing.  I'll send you some GNU maintainer information
separately and we'll go from there.

Exactly how gsrc evolves would be up to you, as its maintainer.  Brian
Gough and I had the original idea (well, slightly different ones), but
it clearly hasn't taken over the world :), so don't feel compelled to
keep it in its current state if you have ideas for another direction.

It's true that it was not intended to be a package management system in
any way.  That's what GNU Stow is for.

    ps - I still think that GSRC would make a great foundation for a
    (separately maintained) source-based free GNU/Linux distribution! 

You're not the only one :).  (Whether gsrc-related or not.)  Please
check out the recent discussions on the gnu-system-discuss list, and
feel free to subscribe there.

Thanks,
Karl
