[csw-maintainers] Package page broken

btw; the reason that sometimes there is a lag for "new" packages to be
displayed as packages, is two fold:

1. a package doesnt display as "officially" a package on
  www.opencsw.org/packages until it has an official mantis section for it.

2. there is a separate "checkmantis" script, that i run from time to time,
to do this.

The reason #2 is separate, is because creating the mantis space is kinda
messy to back out from, so it's nice to avoid adding something by mistake,
or in error.

SO, at the moment, we're erroring on the side of not updating frequently
enough, as opposed to updating mantis all the time.


james' stuff doesnt try to integrate/update anything else, so it's a little
simpler on his end.
