 Is there anyone in the team who can grant me access to collab-maint ? I
 have sent a enquiry email via the Alioth page a while back and never got
 any reply. I have got some non-science related packages that I'd like to
 host on collab-maint instead of d-science / d-med.

I vaguely remember that creating a repository on collab-maint need to be
done by a DD and requires manual intervention.  Please give proper why
you prefer collab-maint which requires extra work with no visible profit
over debian-med/debian-science.  We have previously packaged non-med /
non-science software as preconditions for our target packages and I see
no point to derive from this habit for cosmetic reasons.

Kind regards

The description in [1] does not explicitly mentioned this is restricted 
to DD usage.

I thought only packages or deps related to scientific packages were 
welcome in
d-science. Since some packages I work on seemed to fit the description 
in [1], I

thought about using collab-maint instead.


We have previously packaged non-med /
non-science software as preconditions for our target packages and I 
see

no point to derive from this habit for cosmetic reasons.


The one package I had in mind at the moment was bitstring [2], which is 
more of a
general purpose module but may become an install-dep of future 
scientific packages.

Bottom line is I should stick to d-science for this one ?


Thanks for your very much for your comments,

It is not restricted regarding *usage* but a DD has to ask for getting
anybody else added.

Is there any doc that supports your thought? ;-)
I'm to lazy to find counter examples to what you think but I'd find
five packages very quickly if it wouldn't be so late.

Yes.  This would simplify things.

You are welcome
