Re: adoption - gdict
eechi von akusyumi (2000-12-24 19:03:47 +0800) : I would like to adopt the package gdict and maintain it. Would you guys ther like to give me some pointers on how should i do? You might want to have a look at the gnome-utils package. It's actively maintained by James LewisMoss, and it Replaces: gdict (since it includes it). So, you could either contact the maintainer and get him to re-split what was previously merged, or adopt the whole package, or help him maintain it.

Um, you can get this information either by dpkg -s gnome-utils or by http://packages.debian.org/. His Debian login is dres, so his email address is [EMAIL PROTECTED] and also, i'm now applying at http://nm.debian.org and i want to know how long (average) is the process) It varies alot. You can get an idea of the numbers on the website itself. As an example, I applied in November and I am almost completely done (I'm waiting for the Debian account manager to create my account), but it takes longer for some other people.
