Another task that someone in the community might be interested in would be to
create a Debian package:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=401157
which could also find its way into Ubuntu very easily.

Making it compile successfully under recent versions of gcc, if not already
done, would also help.

A Debian and Ubuntu package would help to increase the visibility of the
project. Licencing of the documentation is another issue that would need to be
clarified, I suspect, if Debian free software guidelines were to be met to
allow inclusion of the manuals with the packages.

Just a suggestion from an interested onlooker. The last time I tried, Ingres
failed to compile under gcc 4.1. Debian Unstable is up to gcc 4.2 now.
