Trying to see the relations in apt-portal's db now...

Then again, if it's not doable now, we can do it later

Ok, cool. It could be pretty generic, probably.

The wiki would probably have its old colors, and we can always
do a "facelift" and change colors, so I say we stick to the current
stuff and change colors later if we cared to...

openmoko-community.org is a bit long, what about om-community.org?

Heh, ompkg.org ;P

Something?

I agree with you that frappdb, tho it sounds almost cool, is very fr-centric
and maybe not the best solution.
