So they have to do all the work? That doesn't sound like a good usage of sponsorship. At least my understanding of the Debian mentoring process is that the sponsor just checks if everything is OK (and for this he needs to build the package anyway), and then uploads it. Asking my sponsor to build and the package on half a dozen platforms manually and to repeat that for every new release would abuse the idea of sponsorship, right? So, what *is* actually the way for me to get it ported? Best Ole -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
