Hi all, Please see below a communication with Thomas Goirand on his ITP for the now GPLed Javascript library extJS. He has packaged this library which is considered a very nice addition to Debian and could be used for a webinterface for GNUmed.
He has become a DD but is waiting for the account to be created. If anyone here sees value in this library and could help out by sponsoring or speeding up the account creation process I would very much appreciate it. Best regards, Sebastian Hilbert GNUmed team ---------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht ---------- Betreff: Re: ITP: libjs-extjs -- a cross-browser JavaScript library Datum: Mittwoch 23 Juni 2010, 19:33:20 Von: "Thomas Goirand" <[email protected]> An: "Sebastian Hilbert" <[email protected]> > Hi, > > After reading http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=550031 > and seeing that extjs is now GPL v3 I wonder why it is not in Debian > > At least I did not find it. What happened ? > > Best regards, > Sebastian What happened is that I am still waiting for my Debian accounts to be created, as I have been approved as being a Debian Developer at the beginning of the month. If you want me to upload it in the archive, either: - push the administrators to add my account - find me a sponsor for the library upload I am tired of asking everyone in Debian about it (I spent really a great deal of energy to become a DD), and now, I'll just wait that this happens. In the mean while, you can use the package that I did, it's available here: http://ftparchive.gplhost.com/debian/pool/lenny/main/l/libjs-extjs/ Note that it's not the very latest version, but I believe that making a new package would be trivial. As I see it, it seems it would make sense to package the extjs library with version numbers, so that more than one version could stay in the archive, then we could use the /etc/alternatives system to have a default. What do you think of this? Do you also need a specific release? This is an important point for me... Best Regards, - -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
