I cleaned the project page a bit. If you think, we need something I
removed, feel free to re-add it. Damian, I gave you administrative
rights too. If you want to restrict your rights or whatever, you can do
this yourself.

FYI: SVN is finally up: http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/php-apt-parser

Write access will probably be available after next synchronization
between Alioth and svn.debian.org.

Another mail will follow about a structure suggestion.

Ok. Jarno, you suggested a BSD-like license. I would be fine with that.
IMHO a good choice for this work (don't know the MIT license). Your
opinions?

Do we want a commits list? Or do we want to setup commit mailings to
this list? I guess, this list will not have so many traffic, that commit
mailings will disturb. Or do you don't want commit mails?

Ditto.
