RFS: json-py (updated package)

2008-08-21 Thread Daniel Watkins
Dear mentors and Pythonistas,

I am looking for a sponsor for the new version 3.4-4
of my package "json-py".

It builds these binary packages:
python-json - a JSON (http://json.org) reader and writer in Python

The package appears to be lintian clean.

The upload would fix these bugs: 493796

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/j/json-py
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main 
contrib non-free
- dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/j/json-py/json-py_3.4-4.dsc

I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me.

Kind regards,

Thanks for your sponsorship (once again).

I'm not totally convinced that it is worth requesting a freeze
exception (which I assume is what you're talking about) as the changes
between -2 and -4 are almost entirely concerned with the packaging
(there are no modifications to the functionality of the installed
package) and no bugs have been closed by -3 or -4 (with the exception
of the adoption bug).

If, however, you think there would be value, I would be more than happy
to defer to the greater experience and go ahead and request the
exception.

Thanks!

I've realised that I shouldn't have requested sponsorship for this yet,
because one of its dependencies is still an ITP.  I'm chasing that up,
and will include the changes mentioned below in the package for which I
eventually seek sponsorship.

Will do, as per above.

Well, I've been using it regularly without issue, so I'd have no qualms
about it going into unstable.

I did not.  Jorge contacted me, having seen my ITP.  His intent is to
derive the Ubuntu packaging in future from the Debian packaging.

Fixed.
