Many thanks for your work, I apologize for being late. I was kind of "trapped in the winter months" ... I am not sure how to handle my packages best: > source | bin > | changed_by > ---------------------+------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+--------------------------------------------------------- > libticables | libticables-dev, libticables2-6, libticables2-dbg > | Andreas B.

Mundt <[email protected]> They are all related to the Texas Instruments calculators, either as emulator or to communicate with the actual device. So they might be useful in many scientific fields, engineering, physics and mathematics fit, but also data acquisition and probably some more. On the other hand, someone really working in those fields uses a much more flexible and convenient PC today. In addition, there has not been much upstream development for quite some time now, and I fear that sooner or later the hardware will disappear, as will the software. We could add the packages to quite a lot of tasks or create a new task, perhaps like "scientific-tools" or "scientific-devices". Or we could ignore them as they are already on their way to retire from being used widely (and with, vanishing upstream support, should not be recommended more than needed). Any suggestions?
