Well you're looking for sponsor right? You should prepare request that will make it easier for eventual sponsors to get know as much as possible about package here. At least that's my opinion ;) > > 2) url to prepared package > > non except official ones done by current maintainer. > http://packages.qa.debian.org/s/setserial.html Why? If you're going to adopt it then please use procedure for this. http://www.debian.org/devel/wnpp/ Hint: You should prepare package which will close RFA with changelog entry. > > and when it's adoption would be great to see > > > > 3) changelog, preferably with some fixes for outstanding bugs > > there are no outstanding bugs reported so there is nothing > to fix at the moment.

Procedure is mentioned at WNPP pages. And there is some bugreport against setserial. Wishlist with updated translation, but it's still bugreport ;) So the correct way of adopting would be to prepare new revision of package with fixed bug and changelog entry which will close RFA. regards fEnIo -- ,''`.
