Excellent. Thank you for reviewing. Looks like I have a list of adjustments to make.

Looking for a Volunteer - Papereshaper
And...there you go! :-) That's why I would like someone to VOLUNTEER to package papershaper. I believe that I have all of the necessary content created in the correct formats, but the specifics of packaging for debian are something I do not know enough about.

Looking for a Sponsor - Papereshaper
I wrote a small Python utility for wallpaper swapping, it has been working flawlessly for a couple of years on my Linux boxes, and I am looking to include it in Debian. I have spent the last week or so tweaking docs and comments to be as Debian package friendly as I know how, I have a git uploaded, and an RFP submitted, and at this point I should probably stop messing with it and ask about a sponsor. The RFP is here: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=976174 The git is here: https://github.com/pkcarlislellc/git-papershaper Thanks!
