Package: node-abbrev Version: 1.0.5-1 Severity: important I was just wondering about the ITPs on d-devel, and whether those packages should not be called nodejs-* instead of node-*, and was seeing this package in the list first.
Both its short description and its long description are utterly ridiculous. Since working as buildd maintainer I have seen some weird and idiotic package short Descriptions, but this is an order of magnitude worse. Please scrap them and write completely new ones which describe, in a positive way, that is, without leaning on another weird scripting language a prospective nodejs user may not know, what this package does. bye, //mirabilos -- Sometimes they [people] care too much: pretty printers [and syntax highligh- ting, d.A.] mechanically produce pretty output that accentuates irrelevant detail in the program, which is as sensible as putting all the prepositions in English text in bold font. -- Rob Pike in "Notes on Programming in C" _______________________________________________ Pkg-javascript-devel mailing list Pkg-javascript-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-javascript-devel
