I can try to add my voice to ask him to upload a new package (or even help, if I know what to do) once I know precisely what the problem is. > For the mathdesign package(s), no sponsor stepped up until now. Hummm, perhaps we don't have that many people interested in high quality typesetting? :-( I think that your RFS was lost in the middle of the many e-mails (and the restructuring of the mentors site) and asking it again would probably get you someone interested in sponsoring at least one first version. > Anyway, I think it is too late for etch now and I hope to have more > time again on January. I don't actually think that a package that isn't that invasive should be a problem for etch. Anyway, uploading it to unstable would be a good thing (or, at least, uploading it experimental), so that the "guinea pigs" (read: "me included") can actually experiment with it, provide feedback and report bugs in an "official way" (even if it has to spend some time in the NEW queue). Thank you very much for your efforts, Rogério Brito. -- Rogério Brito : [EMAIL PROTECTED] : http://www.ime.usp.br/~rbrito Homepage of the algorithms package : http://algorithms.berlios.de Homepage on freshmeat: http://freshmeat.net/projects/algorithms/
