I'll be glad to be proven wrong of course. Your feeling was incorrect. The fact that there's no new upstream release doesn't mean that the project is dead. Being the original author, I can confirm it is not. I'm glad to hear that. However, we do need a Debian maintainer for jaxml -- it hasn't had one for a year and a half -- so I'd still like to hear from Victor. I'm just back from holidays and seeing a lot of debian messages about this software. I'm currently trying to read the 1500 messages which waited for me to be back, when this is done, if something has to be changed to jaxml I'll do it. The necessary changes were Debian-specific, and have been taken care of by Pierre [1] and me [2].

Le mar 1 août 2006 22:42, Matej Vela a écrit : retitle 380848 Python transition (#2): misnamed package with public modules thanks jaxml is a bit of an anomaly: it used a single package to provide a public module for Python 2.1, 2.2, and 2.3. It's not a stand-alone application, so it should really, really be called python-jaxml. There are two reverse dependencies: zope-zshell, which is likely to be removed (#361018), and scanerrlog, which is about to break due to a dependency on python ( 2.4). Victor, as the maintainer of scanerrlog, would you like to adopt jaxml? And QA folks: can we go ahead and remove jaxml immediately? If it's adopted and renamed, it'll have to go through NEW anyway. I just did an upload that addressed that, and the package should hit NEW soon. -- ·O· Pierre Habouzit ··O[EMAIL PROTECTED] OOOhttp://www.madism.org pgpdWKz5qHCmT.pgp Description: PGP signature

I'll be glad to be proven wrong of course. well, my mail was informative, to say that while I was working on the QA packages, I already saw the problems you reported and fixed them before knowing the package may eventually be removed. I couldn't care less about it beeing removed or not. so I'll let you proceed with what you feel as adequate here. -- ·O· Pierre Habouzit ··O[EMAIL PROTECTED] OOOhttp://www.madism.org pgptfloXGA8Wv.pgp Description: PGP signature
