In light of the below, the official packager now is Christian Hudon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
(It is probably best to send discussion of a particular ITP to the ITP itself in the BTS, rather than to debian-devel or directly to the person who posted the ITP. This centralizes information about a particular prospective package.) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Date: 23 Jan 2002 00:54:13 -0500 From: Christian Hudon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Juhapekka Tolvanen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Barak Pearlmutter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: debian-devel@lists.debian.org > IMNSHO somebody must package djvulibre: > > http://djvu.sourceforge.net/ > > It is free implementation of lossy image format called DjVu.

This does look very neat, actually. I'd be willing to package it, and I was going to file an ITP but it seems there's already one, although it's quite old (279 days!). Barak, are you still interested in packaging djvu? If not, I'd be willing to do it. Christian PS What's the consensus on old ITPs... like how long should I wait for an answer from Barak before taking over the ITP? ---------------------------------------------------------------- Date: 22 Jan 2002 22:58:55 -0700 From: Barak Pearlmutter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] CC: [EMAIL PROTECTED], debian-devel@lists.debian.org Subject: Re: Somebody must package djvulibre Sure, no prob, you've got it!
