If no Py3 support can be written by time of the freeze, such tests can still happen from a Buster or unstable chroot. Cheers, Moritz

I have so far not succeeded in converting to Python3. I dare lower severity of this bug to important, however, since the purpose of this package is only for testing other packages, not general consumption (aligning with similar distinction in package debian-security-support as of today). Dropping this package causes less testing of package Radicale. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private signature.asc Description: signature

I am sorry I failed to annouce it on a list where the people interested in looking after caldav-tester were present. I am very happy you decide to take a look at reviving this package. I hope you succeed in porting it to python 3 and getting feedback from upstream. -- Happy hacking Petter Reinholdtsen

Quoting Petter Reinholdtsen: > I tried to notify other caldav interested people to see if there was > any interest in taking over. I am surprised by the above remark, and the consequential removal request by Moritz Mühlenhoff. The only notification I am aware of is this¹: > I am unable to spend much time on maintaining the package, so I hope > someone with more spare time can help out. Upstream is not actively > making new releases, but have tagged releases in the past on my > request. Their focus is writing a tool to test their own caldav > server, and they only fetch HEAD in their own development.

I am not > actively using it myself, and thus do not regularly have an itch to > scratch. I failed to read above as a request for adoption at the time, and still do. Please formally orphan or file an RFA to most reliably communicate such intent. I assume that the package is now up for adoption, and will act accordingly - hopefully I did not get here too late and the package gets kicked out before I can finish my examination. - Jonas ¹ https://alioth-lists.debian.net/pipermail/calendarserver-discuss/2017-April/68.html -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private signature.asc Description: signature

The caldav-tester program is useful to test any caldav implementation, not only calendarserver. I introduced it into the archive to test the other implementations. I lack the capacity to port it to python 3 myself, but hope upstream have done so already or will do it in time. I have not had capacity to track upstream developers either, so I do not know if this already happened. :( -- Happy hacking Petter Reinholdtsen

Is caldav-tester by itself still useful (and if so, are you planning to port it to Python 3), or should it be removed as well? Cheers, Moritz
