Hello debian mentors! ;) I've recently uploaded my last version of Fritzing package. I've fixed all lintian errors and warnings and I've followed all recommendations except packaging this application under pkg-electronics team. I've suscribed to their list but I don't know what I must to do about.
However I consider that my package is now suitable to get into the Debian world. I would like that somebody review my work and tell me the next step. Thank you.
