Hello everyone,
I am Aymeric Agon-Rambosson, Debian Maintainer
(https://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=aymeric.agon%40yandex.com).
I recently had to install a Mumble server implementation on one of
my servers. I did find the list of dependencies of mumble-server a
bit too long for my taste.
Fortunately, I found on the internet a minimalistic implementation
of the Mumble server protocol, umurmur
(https://github.com/umurmur/umurmur). It turns out that umurmur is
not packaged by debian.
For this reason, I have packaged umurmur
(https://salsa.debian.org/ricorambo/umurmur), and I have used it
without any issues for the past three months.
Now that I believe I have tested it enough, I think it should be
packaged in Debian. This is why I am contacting you. I wanted to
gauge interest before filing the ITP bug.
My idea was the following : the package would be nominally
maintained by the VoIP team (the team would be in the Maintainer
field), and I would be the uploader. I would do the actual
maintaining, so as not to give you extra work (to be fair, there
is very little work).
However, I would need a Debian Developer to go through NEW, and
for the eventual uploads of the new upstream releases (which are
bound to be infrequent).
What do you think ? Would one DD of the team be ready to sponsor
my very few uploads (or to give me upload rights after a while) ?
The work I've done is available to be reviewed at
https://salsa.debian.org/ricorambo/umurmur. Please let me know if
anything is out of order.
Thank you in advance for your time.
Best regards,
Aymeric
