Ehm: | You should set the subject of the bug to ITP: foo -- short | description, substituting the name of the new package for foo. The | severity of the bug report must be set to wishlist. Please send a copy | to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> by using the X-Debbugs-CC header | (don't use CC:, because that way the message's subject won't indicate | the bug number). If you are packaging so many new packages (>10) that | notifying the mailing list in seperate messages is too disruptive, do | send a summary after filing the bugs to the debian-devel list | instead. This will inform the other developers about upcoming packages | and will allow a review of your description and package name. I think this bug should be closed again. Marc -- BOFH #149: Dew on the telephone lines.
