The Maintainers FAQ says: : ********************************************* : Question 6 : How to I commit to maintaining a new package? : ********************************************* : : Send e-mail to Ian Murdock <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> indicating your : desire to maintain the package. Carbon-copy the message to Jim Robinson : <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, the maintainer of the list of maintainers. AFAIK at least Jim Robinsons isn't involved in this anymore, so don't rely on the mail addresses above. In my "Hints for Contributing" document I pointed nearly everything to my mail address, and I'd continue to do the handling of the prospective package maintainers list. Thanks, Sven. Prospective contributors: It's a good idea to tell Sven when you're working on a new package, and also to ask Bruce Perens ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) to add you to the debian-devel mailing list if you plan on maintaining it. It isn't *required* that you do so--that is, if you make a package without telling Sven that you're working on it, we'll still accept the contribution. But it's a good idea for you to do so, to avoid duplicated effort.
