Hi Damian, Nick, I think we are here for the same goal: advancing Debian, and fighting over a package wouldn't do that.
There is some expectation, when contributing to Debian, that people are able to work together. I understand that you both might have got off to a bad start, but both of you should be able to overcome this. Whatever has been said so far, please don't let the initial friction determine how you work together from here. In particular, I don't think it is useful to decide who is "the maintainer" of scenefx at this point. You both have invested work in the package, and there is no reason why that work cannot be combined. The fact that one of you started working on it earlier, or that the other one filed the ITP, doesn't prevent you from becoming co-maintainers and moving forward together. To make this easier, I have created a repository in the Debian namespace on Salsa and given both of you access. Please use this repository to combine your work and continue the packaging together. I'd also ask both of you to leave the personal remarks behind. Calling each other's work careless, juvenile, rude, abrasive, etc. isn't going to help solve the technical or packaging questions. If you disagree about something, discuss the actual issue and find a solution that works for the package. You are both contributing to Debian, and I'd really like to see that result in a good package rather than in a dispute over who gets to maintain it. Please remember the common goal, get back to working together, and make scenefx a good Debian package. -- Thanks, Tobi
