FW: Again ask for a mentor who can help me by private mail

2014-02-03 Thread Roelof Wobben
Hello,

A few days ago I ask here for a mentor who can help me with becoming a
Debian Maintainer.
Eribo has volunteered me where I thank him a lot.
But because I copied a few things from a package he maintains he wants to
stop mentoring me. This was a really really stupid thing to do and it will
never happen again
Also I realy really want to become a good packager/Maintainer, I hope someone 
else is willing to help me.
You can find my first made package here : 
https://mentors.debian.net/package/nhexed
My ultimate goal is to get Cinnamon2 in Debian in the future. I know I have to 
lot to learn but Im willing to give 100%.
Regards,
Roelof Wobben

do I understand it correct, that your (former) mentor stopped mentoring
you because you copied over best practices from other packages, in
particular those your mentor maintains?

If so, not you should be hit with the holy hammer of clue, but your mentor.

Uh, yeah. What the hell? Who is this guy (Eribo) and why does not think
it's not OK for you to take freely licensed code and use it in-line with
their licensing?

Sounds like you need a better mentor...

Cheers,
  Paul

You may have better luck on debian-mentors (but I echo what others are
saying… it sounds like your mentor is not behaving in the spirit of
open source software)
