I see that when looking at the wiki a few days ago, it said that the tool we submit to the stable server will not be maintained by us, rather a developer (of some kind). Does this still apply? Just reading the wiki now, it seems the 'owners' now maintain them via shell accounts and then run the tool under a 'primary' root account (that's my understanding, correct me if wrong). That's how I would like it to be, that way the person familiar with the tool can update it.
I was thinking on getting a stable server account for my 'Toolserver Replag' tool (located at http://tools.wikimedia.de/~e/replag/), but I didn't know whether it was completely meeting the 'requirements' for it and would like your opinions. Many users have come up to me in the past week wanting a 'raw' replication lag output, which I provided (located at http://tools.wikimedia.de/~e/replag/raw/) and believe it would be put to good use on the stable server.
Kind regards,

so not many people seem interested in moving their projects to the stable server. are the requirements too strict, or do people just not see the need?
