Re: Packaging request for pygrib

[Alastair McKinstry]

Hi, and happy new Year

I'm the maintainer of pygrib in Debian. I'm sorry for being late to the thread, 
but I see you found the package.
I hope it works for you; do you need it to be in Debian Python ?

Regards
Alastair

  GRIB is a file format for the storage and transport of gridded
  meteorological data, such as Numerical Weather Prediction model output.

It is OK to break the consensus "Somebody else should do it"

Learned today that grib is not a misspelled grub.
( Text from https://www.gnu.org/software/grub/

   GNU GRUB is a Multiboot boot loader.

   Briefly, a boot loader is the first software program that runs when a
   computer starts. It is responsible for loading and transferring
   control to the operating system kernel software (such as the Hurd or
   Linux). The kernel, in turn, initializes the rest of the operating
   system (e.g. GNU).

Not a fool, just learning.  Debian is complicated and the best way to learn is 
to dive in and try things.  As long as you learn along the way, it's all good.

There's an existing package of that name maintained outside the team:

https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/pygrib

Assuming it's the same package, you should contact the maintainer about 
contributing.

For The Debian Python team, if the team is listed as the maintainer for an 
existing package, then you can go ahead.  If an individual is listed at 
Maintainer and the team is listed in Uploaders, then you should check with the 
identified maintainer before doing stuff.

For new packages, you don't need to wait for permission to prepare the 
package.

Hi Geert, I will try my best to feel among friends here but being new,
it's always a bit of a guessing game. I would enjoy helping out with
this task. What are the next steps in our process?

It is OK to break the consensus "Somebody else should do it"

I'm interpreting this two-ways; 1. It's ok that I'm not the maintainer,
and in general others can do packaging for maintainers. Or 2. I seem to
have implied that I want someone else to do the packaging work for me. I
assume it is #1 but if it is #2, I apologize for coming across this way
that was not my intent. And if something else, please let me know.
