The Debian default is ITP but I derived from this for the reason that when drafting an ITP I need to assemble all information twice. So itp_from_debian_dir helps a lot. But I think injecting something into Salsa **soon** can avoid duplicated work. The first step could be to seek for the string of the package name (with and without any language prefix like python- or so). I really like to encourage people to push to Salsa **soon**. The rationale is that the machinereadable gatherer is running once per day over all repositories and is gathering metainformation like URLs, descriptions, upstream metadata, license, publication references and repository ids. If you have assembled this please push. We can reference this on our tasks pages (or as a link in Jun's document if needed). > My next target is a revisit of Vienna RNA. OK.
