Hello devs, My company is interested in contracting out work to produce .deb packages for CouchDB 2.0. We have a hard requirement for Ubuntu 16.04, and would additionally like 12.04 if possible (my understanding is that this is more difficult, due to the age of the release).
The intent is that this would be similar to the work we previously sponsored for CouchDB 1.5 and 1.6 packaging that ended up in the https://launchpad.net/~couchdb/+archive/ubuntu/stable PPA, set up by Dave Cottlehuber. Ideally, the new packages would end up in the same place. We would also like the work to end up being contributed back to the CouchDB project, so that future releases can provide updated binary packages easily. We'd prefer someone with a commit bit do the work to increase the likelihood of that happening, but at the end of the day, we just need the packages. Is anyone interested and available? Cheers, Eli
