I can do all the work myself, as the Intent to package suggests. So I choose this as the primary proposal. I am pretty sure I can handle doing the Debian packaging. I expect there to be frequent releases. I would need some initial help with the process, getting commit access and some introductions. Over time I can delegate this task to some of the developers on the team, I already have another person in mind who can do this task also.
I would also be open to a form of cooperation where someone in the Debian community would be interested in helping package and maintain the Debian version of Northstar browser and the 3 variants. So please help get this web browser included into Debian Linux sid and next stable, this is the most important milestone for making this web browser a success at the moment - to get real users to use the browser.
