Hi Bernhard,

Thank you for sharing your personal Trello board. It is very useful! Can
people help in those tasks being of yours? Maybe I can mention you
Kanban Board besides the current collaboration and documentation pages
of the Reproducible Builds website in a presentation I will share in
Spanish. Tell me if is possible to do it or not to respect your
decision. By the way. Is this tool mentioned somewhere in the RB
website? http://ismypackagereproducibleyet.org/?pkg=lxde&query=query I
was looking if it is listed at the Reproducible Builds tools page
https://reproducible-builds.org/tools/ but I did not find it. I have
visited the ismypackagereproducibleyet Git Repo
http://ismypackagereproducibleyet.org/?pkg=lxde&query=query and the
project looks nice,

Regards
Jathan
