Works like a charm specifically with Bas Couwenberg. IMHO this is just another proof of my claim that assembling people under related topic (== Blends) is a good way to match a proper Sponsor - Sponsee - couple.

(it's needed as a library for Freeplane/FreeMind) It is definitely no problem - a Debian Pure Blend is actually Debian. So there is no conflict in this. It just comes natural to maintain it in Debian GIS somehow.

You are not listed in the list of members of pkg-grass at alioth[1] - I personally have no admin permissions. I'd recommend to apply there (if nobody from the admins is reading this mail).

RFS: speedpad #646059
Hello, I found an old ITP, that became an RFP, and made a package for it. I think it's a nice game, to exercise the typing speed by copying fortunes. It's kinda similar to typespeed but makes you copy actual text, with a bit less pressure. The package is lintian clean. Is anyone interested in sponsoring it? http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/speedpad/speedpad_1.0-1.dsc Bye -- Salvo Tomaselli http://ltworf.github.io/ltworf/ signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
Bug#719801: Acknowledgement (RFS: roundup/1.5.0-1)
On 8/15/13 3:21 PM, Debian Bug Tracking System wrote: Thank you for filing a new Bug report with Debian. I have updated roundup_1.5.0-1 per the 17th of October with a few changes after getting feedback by Sebastian Ramacher. - I removed runit support; - added a NEWS.Debian section about this - Added in a WSGI example application and libapache2-mod-wsgi examples (And Suggests) - Rewrote large parts of the README.Debian to be consistent with the above changes. This should close an extra bug: #604074 - Made a debhelper Build dependency on 8.2 instead of 8. - Changed the debian/compat from 7 to 8. - removed an old occurrence of dh_installoverrides (unused) - /etc/defaults/roundup contains a $RUN variable defaulting to 'no'. - Added more NEWS about this. - Rebuild the documentation using sphinx, fix an upstream sphinx layout issue. This removed some lintian4py warnings. - #DEBHELPER# tags are now present in all the *.(pre|post)(inst|rm) scripts where they are needed. Removed lintian overrides. Lots of work done I think.
