Hi all, I finally find the time to take over the packaging of scilab.
First of all I was trying to build scilab with svn-buildpackage and establishing a workflow with subversion. This finally failed. So I decided to move the packaging of scilab from subversion to git. I imported the whole subversion repository into git and cleaned it up afterwards. In detail, I did the following: - Creation of real git tags and removing the corresponding branches. - Removing unnecessary branches like trunk I pushed the result of my effort to my personal public git repository at alioth[1] for reviewing. Please feel free to leave comments, complaints and suggestions on how to improve it. If there are no bigger complaints or suggestion for improvment I would prepare a first release to close #744140.
