All versions are on my local computer. I started with version 0.10.
Whenever I added new functions or fixed several bugs, I increased the
version number.

The actual version ("0.34") is the first which contains all desired
functions, and after extensive testing I hope that there are only minor
bugs left. Therfore I decided to make an attempt for publishing it on
debian.
Should I rename it to "0.10"?
Now you can see the project under the following address:
https://gitlab.com/b.lutz1/galvani
I changed the group name to "galvani" but the path to the project
remained the same.

I saw that you are a member of debian-science-team. Did you have some
time so far to have a look at my project? Do you think debian-science-
team could be interested in that project?

I'm looking for a sponsor to publish the project on debian. Can you
perhaps help me in that issue?
