Have you never been excited about being able to contribute to
Debian? (I found your answer inappropriate)

 Yes, you're right, I'm not a DD.  Anyway,  I've had no idea that you're a
 DD.  That being said, perhaps it's better to submit wnpp bugs using your

 On the other hand, please ignore my intention to maintain this.

That's not the proper way to end such a discussion. You know we can have
several (co-)maintainers for each package since a very long time. 

Put your work on a git repo in collab-maint and work together!

 I'm sorry for this.

Don't be sorry, you have done nothing wrong except badly timing your ITP.

Please consider refraining to post comments like this in the
future. Your intention might have been good, but written as you wrote
it, it can discourage non-DDs to maintain packages.

We have sponsorship in place exactly because we (unless proven
otherwise) want also non-DDs to maintain packages, of course with
mentoring and review in place before uploading.

Also, the Debian Project endorsed the notion of Debian Maintainer [1]
which, again, show our support to non-DDs maintaining packages
(sometime for the interim before becoming DDs, sometime not).

Cheers.

It was not my intention to shut you down.  I am just trying to figure
out how far you've gotten in packaging the program. 

There is a serious blockage in pushing cgit into the archive because
libgit.a isn't available from git-core.  I've been chatting with the
git-core maintainer to see if there will be a change in this.

Indeed, unfortunately, this is one of the reasons why I stopped working
on packaging it for now.  As far as I can see, you're already talking to

What about this solution: building git-core  cgit from the one source
package, containing both source trees? This way they won't go
out-of-sync.

Bug#515793: ITP: CGIT -- C-code Web Front-end to GIT

2009-02-17 Thread Marc Singer
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

The upstream build of cgit requires a download of git to build libgit
which this package links statically.  Thus, this package practically
depends on a change to git-core.

So, I would like to take care of this.  May I take over this ITP?

How did you package it? If it includes the git source do not

WHEN DID BEING A DD BECOME A PREREQUISITE FOR MAINTAINING A PACKAGE?

The “you're not a DD” blablabla is quite frustrating already, and I
can't think of a good reason to (mis|ab|)use it, especially when there's
no reasons to.

Had you done a bit of research, you'd have found Iulian already
maintains some packages within the Debian archive[1]. And from his mail
address, you could guess that it might be Ubuntu giving back to Debian.
