There are lots of ways you can contribute to open source. For example: *You mention some personal projects - if they could be useful to someone else, then publish the code somewhere like gitorious or github. *Is there a python application that you like or use often? Find the developers and try to code new features or fix bugs. *Is there a program that you like that is not yet in Debian? Make a package, and then see if anyone is willing to upload it at debian-mentors. If you're not sure what to package, here are some programs which people have requested: http://wnpp.debian.net/?type[]=RFP&project=python There are lots of other things that you can do, but given that you're specifically talking about Python, I think that you'd like these tasks best.

streql - Constant-time string comparison
Dear debian-python, I am looking for a sponsor for my package "streql". In Python, the code for testing the equality of strings is susceptible to a "timing side channel attack". The package 'streql' provides a function for comparing strings of equal length in equal time, regardless of the content of the strings. This package has already been discussed in depth on debian-security: https://lists.debian.org/debian-security/2014/10/threads.html#00060 * Package name: streql Version : 3.0.2-1 Upstream Author : Peter Scott * URL : https://github.com/PeterScott/streql * License : Apache 2.0 Section : python It builds those binary packages: python-streql - Constant-time string comparison (Python 2) python3-streql - Constant-time string comparison (Python 3) pypy-streql - Constant-time string comparison (PyPy) To access further information about this package, please visit the following URL: http://mentors.debian.net/package/streql Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command: dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/streql/streql_3.0.2-1.dsc Changes since last upload: * Initial release (Closes: #764443) Regards, Riley Baird -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-python-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Request to join Python Modules Packaging Team
Hi -python! I would like to adopt the "slides" package as part of the Python Modules Packaging Team. Much of the work has already been done, and the only things left would be to change the maintainer fields and move the repository over to Alioth. You can see the work I've already done here: https://mentors.debian.net/package/slides Yours thankfully, Riley Baird pgpfYEepu94ft.pgp Description: PGP signature

(The reason I used "extra" was that I didn't know if I could change the priority of an already existing package, and slides is priority extra at the moment.) > * just a hint: you can use debian/slides-doc.examples to make > debian/rules even simpler I don't know if I can. Some of the documentation has to be compiled, and putting "examples/*" into slides-doc.examples seems to only copy the files over. Or is there some way to get around this?

I tried to follow the StyleGuide as well as I > understood it. Great package! Here are some comments that I have: d/changelog: -New packages should close an ITP bug. File one, and then put "(Closes: #)" where # is the number of your bug. d/control: -You could add Vcs-Browser and Vcs-Git fields. -Lintian gives the experimental warnings: I: python-wget: captitalization-error-in-description python Python I: python3-wget: captitalization-error-in-description python Python However, this is a false positive within lintian. You should make a d/lintian-overrides file to note this. d/copyright: -Even if a file is in the public domain, and so has no copyright, you still need to put the author's name/year in the copyright field. Other than that, I can't really see any problems. I'm not a DD, so I can't sponsor your package, but good luck getting it into Debian!
