The release on sourceforge is not compatible with the current implementation in Gentoo AFAIK. > So your first task would be a proper bump and a maybe few bug fixes after: webapp-config is in a horrible shape and also has several design flaws. i wouldn't touch it. that's why i already added an idea to the GSoC list for a complete w-c rewrite. i talked to gunnar in 2008 or 2009 at chemnitz linux days, and we agreed that w-c needs a rewrite. but none of us had/has time to do it. hopefully gsoc can change this situation.
