 Dear all,

Is there anyone in the team who can grant me access to collab-maint ? I have sent a enquiry email via the Alioth page a while back and never got any reply. I have got some non-science related packages that I'd like to
 host on collab-maint instead of d-science / d-med.

I vaguely remember that creating a repository on collab-maint need to be
done by a DD and requires manual intervention.

The description in [1] does not explicitly mentioned this is restricted to DD usage.

Please give proper why
you prefer collab-maint which requires extra work with no visible profit
over debian-med/debian-science.

I thought only packages or deps related to scientific packages were welcome in d-science. Since some packages I work on seemed to fit the description in [1], I
thought about using collab-maint instead.

We have previously packaged non-med /
non-science software as preconditions for our target packages and I see
no point to derive from this habit for cosmetic reasons.

The one package I had in mind at the moment was bitstring [2], which is more of a general purpose module but may become an install-dep of future scientific packages.

Bottom line is I should stick to d-science for this one ?


Thanks for your very much for your comments,

Ghis
