Ok, I guess this can be looked at this as part of the OpenMAMA package
update to get your packaged sponsored

You have several wnpp bugs, I think the link I gave in the earlier email
is not the one you link in the changelog, so we could use this one instead:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=732302

The lintian report (mentors.debian.net) shows a lot of 'E' and 'W'
messages.  It is hard for a sponsor to upload the package while those
exist.  If you can remove them, I could then sponsor it.  Many of them
are duplicates and some are quite easy to fix, e.g.

    copyright-should-refer-to-common-license-file-for-apache-2
<http://lintian.debian.org/tags/copyright-should-refer-to-common-license-file-for-apache-2.html>

is basically telling you the debian/copyright file should refer to
/usr/share/common-licenses/Apache-2.0

Also, do you want to track the debian/* files in your qpid-proton
repository or would you like Debian to keep those in a Debian hosted Git
server?  For the latter, you just need to create a guest account on
http://alioth.debian.org and send me your username and we can work out a
way for you to put things in Git on alioth.

If you let me know about these things and cc the
[email protected] mailing list and the bug we will get
this moving along.

Regards,

Daniel
