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
