Hi Adam, Thanks for reviewing my draft source package. Taking your advice into consideration, I changed the name for the binary package, which is now called libfast-float-dev. The README file says fast-float itself is a "library", so it would be better to treat it as such. Here is the latest draft (see Upload #2): https://mentors.debian.net/package/fast-float/ If you don't mind, can you sponsor this package and help me upload it to the archive? Best regards, Fukui

The package looks good so far, but C/C++ development header packages are supposed to be named libXXX-dev. Strictly speaking, the Policy demands that only for headers of shared libraries, but I wouldn't go different for a header-only lib. Eg: source package: plf-colony binary package: libplf-colony-dev (Of course, some other sponsor may think different...)
