Hi Kurt
I'm interested in salvaging your package libid3tag, in accordance with
the Package Salvaging procedure outlined in the Developers Reference[1].
Your package meets the criteria for this process, and I would love to
assist in preserving and maintaining it. As the Salvage process
suggests, here is a list of the criteria that apply, in my opinion:
- Bugs filed against the package do not have answers from the
maintainer.
- Upstream has released several versions, but despite there being
a bug entry asking for it, it has not been packaged.
- There are QA issues with the package.
I believe your package would be a great addition to the Debian
Multimedia Maintainers team, and I'm planning to create the Salsa
repository here[2]. If you choose not to accept the ITS, I'd be more
than happy to help you move it to another location, such as debian/, or
wherever you prefer. My goal is to make it as easy as possible for you
to join the team. I'd also be delighted to assist in adding you as a
team member if you could share your Salsa login.
Your package was highlighted the second time in the Bug of the Day[3]
initiative. Last time I've sent you a private mail (Message-ID:
<zvfdlj2ayvsbi...@an3as.eu>) since I know you are active in Debian. The
Bug of the Day aims to introduce newcomers to manageable tasks and guide
them through the workflow to solve them. The focus of this initiative is
on migrating packages to Salsa, as it's a great way to familiarize
newcomers with a consistent Git-based workflow.
Kind regards
Andreas.
