I had a quick look at the "crypt" project. It appears that the project is only a binding to the C crypt function. I'm not sure this deserves its own package in Debian (maybe for a personal use, but not directly in the Debian archive). I think that people can easily integrate it in their own project. And even more seriously (from a Debian practices POV), the sources don't include any information about the license nor any copyright statement. That would not be accepted in Debian. > After that, I might be interested on packaging bigger and bigger > softwares. > We really enjoy welcoming new people in our team and we thank you for your interest in Debian and OCaml packaging. But, before, we'd like to see how familiar you are with Debian and more specifically with OCaml stuff. You can try to contribute in several ways by doing some bug triaging or even providing patches for bugs reported against OCaml packages. When you provide a patch, the responsible of the package could apply your patch so that: - your name still appears in the commit log - your changes would be referenced in the debian/changelog - and it could land in the Debian archive via sponsoring.
