since you have already mentioned this a few times: how about changing
the policy then, to clearly state that we use GIT only?

as you haven't done that yet, i guess there is some catch; but since i
only joined the team a few months ago i might have missed that.
(might be that the catch is simply one of priviliges to modify the policy)

yeah, how about changing it? So many people complain about SVN and
when it comes to do the actual work only one or two stepped up (the ones
that weren't complaining, BTW).

How about someone else, especially those who were so eager to move to git,
volunteer some time and prepare changes in policy?

the catch is it takes longer than writing an email

I moved policy.rst to python-modules.git repo (it was available to edit
by every team member in SVN as well). It's not OK to edit it and push it
without having a discussion here (on this mailing list) first, though.

Ok to push to a non-master branch? e.g. post-git-migrate?

As a first step, I would suggest deleting the entire "Subversion
Procedures" section. Maybe it could be replaced by a "Git Procedures"
section that has a link to the wiki page?

[DPMT] A newcomer to DPMT

2015-10-17 Thread Kevin Murray
Hi all,

I've been working with the Debian-Med team for a while. Recently I've packaged
a few python module build dependencies of a Debian-Med package, seqan[1]. These
packages, listed below, are relatively generic and Sandro Tosi suggested these
be co-maintained with the DPMT. I had originally intended to co-maintain these
with Debian-Med, hence the git links below are under Debian Med's folder on
git.debian.org.

My questions are:

  - Where would the team like these packages maintained? I assume under the
python-modules/packages/ directory on git.debian.org?
  - Do I need to be an official member of the DPMT to contribute? If so, could
I please join? These are probably not the last python packages I'll
create and/or contribute to. My alioth username is daube-guest.

Packages in question:

  - python-oset: Ordered sets for python
bts: https://bugs.debian.org/801306
git: https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/debian-med/python-oset.git/

  - python-sphinxcontrib.bibtex: allows the use of Bibtex citations in sphinx
bts: https://bugs.debian.org/800358
git: https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/debian-med/sphinxcontrib-bibtex.git/

  - pybtex-docutils: A docutils backend for pybtex
bts: https://bugs.debian.org/801307
git: https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/debian-med/pybtex-docutils.git/

  - python-latexcodec: A Python LaTeX lexer and codec
bts: https://bugs.debian.org/801309
git: https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/debian-med/python-latexcodec.git/

These are nearly ready to review and hopefully sponsor, though once I have push
access to the DMPT repositories I'll change things like the VCS fields and do a
final run-through of the team's policies. Then I'll ask for sponsorship.

Cheers,
Kevin
