We're kinda hesitant to accept binary packages.  Why
don't you request membership and I'll give you commit
privs :)

Re: p7zip  
I had no change to do, it build right out of the box.

I can understand why you wouldn't want to accept binaries.  However I believe it's a good idea to make binaries easily 
available (maybe not? ).  Not everyone in the community would be willing to go through this pkgsrc stuff just to get 
p7zip for example.

Sean are you saying that QSS have no plan to make binaries available or just that you don't want to accept binaries from
 outsiders?

If it just builds we'll add it to our build list internally.

We have a download section in the project where a bunch are available.
This isn't ideal for the 'pkg_add' utility (expects ftp or straight
http) but we're working on that.

I added you.

BTW if list 'All projects' from the Foundry27 home page
you can select the ones you want to request membership
in and the adminstrator will be notified.
