Hi everybody, I need help. I am not a DD, nor a DM; nonetheless, I am one of the two current co-maintainers of apt-listbugs. The other one is Ryan Niebur.
My problem is that I've lost contact with him: he seems to be currently (almost) MIA. It seems that I am not the only one: http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2010/08/msg00468.html http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2010/08/msg00482.html Please read the following bug report that I myself had to open against our own package, in order to try to get in touch with him again: http://bugs.debian.org/588636 Please note the dates of the various messages... :-( Ryan seems to have been unable to perform Debian-related work for quite some time (even though he does not seem to have been completely off-line). Now I am short of ideas on how to proceed: I would like to take over the maintenance of apt-listbugs (possibly with help from someone else, see below) and get direct push access to its public git repository on alioth. As I said on http://bugs.debian.org/588636#39 , I requested to join the alioth apt-listbugs project, but got no reply from any of the project members. Any suggestions on how I should proceed? Also, could someone please review the proposed git work-flow and tell me if it is OK? Finally, I would like to find someone else who could co-maintain the package with me: I usually manage to deal with bug reports and go ahead with developing work by myself, but I sometimes need help on Ruby (I am not yet the Ruby expert I would dream to be!) or on packaging techniques (I am still learning!). Any volunteer? Thanks in advance for your time! -- http://www.inventati.org/frx/progs/scripts/pdebuild-hooks.html Need some pdebuild hook scripts? .....................................................
