I guess I'll need access to python-modules project. Hi JB! Yes, please ask to join the DPMT (here) by giving your alioth ID. This will give you access to the SVN of the team. You'll have to inject your package here. Alternatively, you can use mentors.debian.net (notably if you don't want to work with SVN). Being part of DPMPT is however an easy way to find someone to sponsor your upload. As for the work you have already done: 1. Please, open an ITP against wnpp (see http://mentors.debian.net/intro-maintainers) and close it in the first entry of your changelog. Other entries should be removed, they are not useful for a first upload to the archive. 2. vertica may not be a good choice for the source package name since if somebody want to package the database, they may want to use that name for the source package. I propose you rename it to python-vertica. 3. In debian/copyright, you should assign copyright to yourself for files in debian/*. It is better to use the same license as for the the upstream package since it will cover patches. 4. I am unsure, but I think that pybuild requires debhelper 8. So you need to update debian/compat and debian/control for that. 5. The short description in debian/control should not end with a dot. -- Use statement labels that mean something. - The Elements of Programming Style (Kernighan & Plauger)
