Installed both packages on my laptop (debian). Besides I needed to
install libxml-writer-perl (Write.pm required) and:

pablo@legba:~/SVN-netfilter/trunk/homepage$ touch depends.tabular
pablo@legba:~/SVN-netfilter/trunk/homepage/xml$ touch depends.tabular

and then, type make.

pablo@legba:~/SVN-netfilter/trunk/homepage$ make
make -C xml
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/SVN/trunk/homepage/xml'
perl -I../scripts -I../../patch-o-matic-ng ../scripts/pom2docbook.pl
--xmldir ./patch-o-matic --repository pending
../../patch-o-matic-ng/patchlets
Your linux version  is unknown for patch-o-matic at
../scripts/pom2docbook.pl line 119
make[1]: *** [patch-o-matic/pom-pending.xml] Error 255
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/SVN/trunk/homepage/xml'
make: *** [all] Error 2

any clue on what's wrong?

OK.

During the WS you told me that you needed someone that could do the
releasing stuff. Well, I don't know if this could help but if you
consider that I could that such work, what will it consist on?
