I did realize that you had filed the report, and I mean no disrespect at all. I began packaging it several weeks ago before thinking to check for ITP's. When I did decide to upload to Debian, I found your ITP, and didn't think to contact you before attaching to it. > I think that asking people to _read_ what the pages and documents say is not > asking too much. > I only see the bug report as it is here: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=573894 Which gives no indication of the status. Can you please be more specific with what page I may have failed to read? I did see this: http://people.debian.org/~mpalmer/debian-mentors_FAQ.html Which does say not to pick a package that already has an ITP. Since I was already done, and there was nothing to tell me that this ITP was active and blocked, I thought it would be appreciated to have a completed package posted ready for review. I should have contacted you first, I just got caught up in the excitement of completing the task and contributing. > The package has been ready even before I filed the report but it is waiting > for > upstream to change the licence.
