It's debcamp time :-) Please propose a good time to meet up, if you have any free time. Also, I'm thinking about attending your intro to packaging talk, because I'm always interested in ways to potentially improve my work, or make it more efficient. Finally, I'm not sure how many people there will be helping with the workshop, but in case there's high attendance and you're short-staffed I can help with intermediate-level packaging stuff, where to find documentation, questions like "is there a dh_helper for that, and if so, how do I learn to use it?", splitting src packages, advanced watch files (exclude files with d/copyright, making +dfsg packages, repack with different compression, and gpg signature verification), intermediate d/copyright, d/control policy and conventions, a variety of cases when a d/rules override is necessary, etc. I would also take care to only propose solutions that harmonize with your talk, because that's important for intro-level courses! (eg: avoid paradox of choice effect) If we meet up before then, maybe you could use this review to validate if I'd be an asset to your workshop? ;-) > No animal has more liberty than the cat; but it buries the mess it > makes.
