Friday, 21 June 2013, 11:10 +02:00 from Fabian Greffrath: Dear folks, ... should we try again to get faac into Debian? IMHO, yes, we should try... Some other software would benefit from it, e. g. Dream (a software Digital Radio Mondiale (DRM), see ITP wnpp bug#691685) can use it for transmitting purposes. By the way, Lucas Nussbaum lu...@debian.org is the current DPL lea...@debian.org, so we should probably use another address to contact Stefano Zacchiroli z...@debian.org ;) Best wishes, Bob
