Hi Andreas, Ah yes, I committed the changes to QIIME but neglected PyNAST. I've now committed my PyNAST changes to SVN. I don't believe this is a fork of PyNAST or a change of upstream maintainer, just a change of location for the source. The changes apart from the watch file are minimal.
On Staden, the people who requested it are testing it right now. The packaging was rather less troublesome than I'd feared. I did end up re-packaging io_lib before realising it was already in Debian as libstaden-read, but I'll clean that up and get rid of my extraneous package before putting it into Bio-Linux. At the moment, the staden package has an SVG icon that I quickly created, as the Staden project has no icon whatsoever. GUI applications in Unity need an icon and accompanying .desktop file to identify them in the Dash. I normally put these in a helper package (ie. bio-linux-staden) and I'll do that once the testers are happy so don't get hung up about it being there - it will go away. I've been tinkering with the -doc package to ensure that all the on-line help menus in Staden appear properly. I've not finished that yet so if you start working on the packages you are liable to repeat what I have done or do something incompatible or push a version with broken help, so I'd ask you not to upload to Sid just yet. But if you want to put in an ITP that would be great.
