You might also want to read the debian-mentors FAQ section on packaging. In addition to the maint-guide, it points you to both the Debian Wiki and Debian Women websites on beginning packaging, along with pointing you to Debian Policy, which will help if you get overly technical questions. http://people.debian.org/~mpalmer/debian-mentors_FAQ.html#packaging As always, you can feel free to ask on the mailing list. -- Daniel Moerner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
