New submission from Simon Michael <simon at joyful.com>:

We should be able to patch and upgrade our roundup software when needed, to
apply needed local changes (cf issue1084 & issue1090) and to manage those
changes with darcs and perhaps feed them upstream. Currently we use the debian
roundup package which is quite old and editable only by root (David). I propose to

1. install the same roundup version (1.2.x) in /usr/local/src/
2. have David change /usr/bin/roundup-mailgw to /usr/local/bin in
/etc/darcs_bugs_procmailrc. Or better, give me write access on that file so that
I can switch when I'm ready and revert if needed. I think that's all we'd need
to do. 

After that I'd be able to apply the fixes we need, and later look into upgrading
to current roundup.
