Hi folks,
With no response to this previous request, for a requirement to build
gettext under CI, and a new release 1.4.1 available upstream, would anyone
have an issue
with my releasing an NMU?
Not at all.
With NMU perms, can I push to libunistring main branch and deploy?
No idea.
Yes.
This probably needs better documenting, but for the moment [1].

I've summarized that email, along with a few others on a similar subject I've
written, and given it a home at [1], in an effort to capture the kind of
process I try to follow (most of the time).
Please say if there's anything shocking, obviously missing or wrong there! Or
if you have any comments, generally.

it looks fine for me.
Only question about Alphabetic order, which one ?
Today it seems an almost ASCII order where Uppercase and Lowercase

If I do a "sort" (LC_CTYPE=it_IT.UTF-8) and compare

the position of "-" and "_" seems different depending on the Local used
That seems to be similar to the order in setup.ini - strcasecmp or rpmvercmp?
How about the same order as installed.db - LC_ALL=C.UTF-8?
Otherwise anything goes - by maintainer -k2?
