I'd say the package is ready for upload. It is currently targeted at unstable, maybe this should get changed to experimental during the freeze. Would you mind sponsoring the package?

One question: why 1.8~beta1 for the upstream release? Why not 1.8-beta1 (matching the upstream tarball more closely) I've seen you removed yourself from Uploaders, so I changed the packaging style to meet my own. I hope you don't mind. No problem. Although It appears I never uploaded the release removing myself, and I've since re-joined the games team, so I've re-added myself. I just deleted the 0.7-2 changelog entry and the corresponding stanza in the latest entry. All your changes look good. I'd say the package is ready for upload. It is currently targeted at unstable, maybe this should get changed to experimental during the freeze. Unstable should be fine. No-one will ever see it in experimental. If we have to do a testing-targeted update we can use t-p-u but I very much doubt we will. Would you mind sponsoring the package? I am neither DM nor DD. No problem, I'll do it today. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org

Why not 1.8-beta1 (matching the upstream tarball more closely) Because that's recommended by Policy: http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/footnotes.html#f37 Releases with '~' sort earlier than the ones without. This way we do not have to introduce an epoch or ugly hacks like '8.0-final' in order to have the final release sort later than the pre-release. No problem.

I made a small number of other changes, hopefully nothing controversial. I'm a fan of parallel builds but getting the upstream Makefile into parallel mode reliably will need more work. I've tagged and pushed to the VCS. THanks for your work on this! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
