I was searching for parti-all though, so I missed your ITP. No problem. It's also my bad for not using the name provided by upstream. I've done some commits into PAPT SVN repository [1], I see that you Michael Schutte some work in git [2]. Although I prefer git over SVN, yet I think it's better to have it maintained under PAPT. No problem. I think there is a better chance of getting a sponsor through PAPT. I will join to PAPT since I'm only a member of DPMT. I have a question, is this: python make_constants_pxi.py wimpiggy/lowlevel/constants.txt wimpiggy/lowlevel/constants.pxi really necessary ? I know that setup.py mentions it in the comments, yet the Ubuntu package didn't run that, yet the build is successful and the package works. That line is not necessary. I looked more closely at that python invocation and it doesn't do anything. It can safely be removed. I did send him an email few hours ago. Will forward it to you shortly. Thanks for forwarding that. Please let me know if he answers.

I'm terribly sorry, yet I did search the wnpp bugs today before I filed the ITP. I was searching for parti-all though, so I missed your ITP. IMO, the parti window manager is not ready to be used by end users. However, xpra is very usable but it has some issues with keyboard management. I use this tool ocassionally without issues. My main interest is xpra indeed. Anyway, the previous ITP only provides two binary packages (parti and python-wimpiggy). If there is any interest in Debian to upload this package I don't really care if this is maintained under collab-maint or PAPT but I would like to be involved as co-maintainer.

I know that setup.py mentions it in the comments, yet the Ubuntu package didn't run that, yet the build is successful and the package works. I think as next step to have this available in Debian, we should contact upstream to know their plans about the future of this software. I did send him an email few hours ago.
