Hi all, I hope many of you are already aware of REUSE. For those of you who aren't, a short intro: REUSE is a set of best practices to make licensing and copyright easier for everyone – especially for developers who want to make the terms of reuse of their software clear. The focus is on simplicity. Read more: https://reuse.software
Now, REUSE provides a helper tool, written in Python. People can install it via PyPi, download packages via Arch's AUR or NixOS, or just build it from source [^1]. But there is no official Debian package yet! And that makes it harder for users and developers who want to improve the reusability of software. Is there anyone who would be interested helping us getting this done, and who has experience with Debian packaging? If so, please let me know! There already is an inofficial package, but it would be great to channel this into the common Debian infrastructure: https://git.ostc-eu.org/OSTC/packaging/reuse https://git.ostc-eu.org/OSTC/packaging/license-expression (dependency) Best, Max [^1]: https://git.fsfe.org/reuse/tool/ -- Max Mehl - Programme Manager - Free Software Foundation Europe Contact and information: https://fsfe.org/about/mehl | @mxmehl Become a supporter of software freedom: https://fsfe.org/join
