Sorry, I didn't write that: I already applied for a membership. I still did not get an approval, but I am listed in the science team member list at <http://alioth.debian.org/projects/debian-science/>. Does this mean that I am a member (since I am listed) or not (since I did not get an approval mail and I cannot access the git VCS)? > If you want to create a new repo, you will have to connect yourself to > git.debian.org and use the script in the debian science directory. Which one do you mean and how do I use it? Browsing <http://git.debian.org>, I found the debian-science/debian-science-tools.git repository, and this contains the scripts src/debsci and src/debsci-wnpp. The latter is for creation of WNPP bugs, and the first says "wrapper for Debian Science tools", and it looks quite generic. I have no idea how to use them. Can you help me out here? >> Another question: The science policy requires that I shall put >> "debian-science-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org" as the Maintainer >> and my own name as Uploader.

I would feel a bit unlucky when I would be moved from the front page to some ChangeLog since I did most of the packaging work for these packages. I would also appreciate if we can discuss the changes you want to make and I could apply them because I need to learn about the packaging process. And, I want to be kept responsible for the package with you (or someone else) as a reviewer who makes comments and finally decides about the inclusion, but does not touch the package himself. I see this in the same sense as a review of a science journal paper, is this the right picture of the mentoring process? BTW, do you have any comments on my packages? Would you be willing to sponsor all three (python-pywcs, cpl, esorex)? > Anyway, the name of the uploader is still shown. See: > http://packages.debian.org/sid/scilab > or > http://packages.qa.debian.org/s/scilab.html Hmm. These seem to show the maintainer (Debian science team) and the uploader (you in this case). An original uploader, or mentor, is not mentioned there. However, if you would keep my name as uploader, I am fine anyway.
