I see that the packages of OpenPKG-CURRENT are updated very fast, sometimes even before the announcement on Freshmeat can be seen. How is this achieved?
The OpenPKG team uses a fully automated process for tracking vendor source versions which reports to the team twice per day the list of packages which need to be updated. Additionally, there is always the job of a Package Master On Duty (PMOD) assigned to a person which trys to immediately perform this update on a daily basis. This way OpenPKG-CURRENT packages are kept always up-to-date for our community as fast as possible and this way we are able to get feedback as early as possible.
