​As a member of team you can start work​ on any package I believe. Yes you
can contact other uploaders to be super-polite but I think it is not
mandatory.

​Basically yes ​... let someone experienced review your work when ready.
You anyway will need someone to upload as you don't have uploading rights
yet I guess.

There is some help for using git for packaging on our wiki:
https://wiki.debian.org/DebianMultimedia/DevelopPackaging

But I find the Debian GIS Team have the most thorough guide that I have
seen (particularly about setting up & getting started):
http://pkg-grass.alioth.debian.org/policy/index.html

Of course, the documentation on gbp is a pretty good reference as you
get going:
http://honk.sigxcpu.org/projects/git-buildpackage/manual-html/index.html

Yes, ones that have not been uploaded for a long time, or with uscan
errors are a good start. Ones that you use (and know well) are also a
good idea.
This query will pick up which ones on the team have a maintainer that
has gone missing:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?maint=pkg-multimedia-maintainers%40lists.alioth.debian.org;tag=mia-teammaint;users=m...@qa.debian.org
It is best to check with the current maintainer before starting, just in
case they were about to do something, or have some half finished work
(or just as a courtesy).

If you let me know your Alioth user name, I can add you to the team.
Generally we upload to unstable. If the upload fixes a bug, we close the
bug with suitable text in the changelog, and the bug will automatically
closed (like the ITP bug for parlatype). After a time, and some
automatic checks, the package will migrate to testing automatically
(parlatype has one more day to go). Only for serious or critical bugs
would we upload to stable. There is more about this in:
https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/index.en.html

I always find Raphael Hertzog's guide to bug triage really useful:
https://raphaelhertzog.com/2011/09/16/how-to-triage-bugs-in-the-debian-bug-tracking-system/

Also guilty!

Welcome to the team. Just ask here for help with our packages, and for
general Debian packaging/bug questions, I recommend Debian Mentors.
Actually, I recommend using Mentors anyway until you have a few uploads
under your belt because other newcomers benefit from the answers to your
questions. If you want me to create the repository on Alioth for
parlatype for you, just let me know.

Ross

Request to join the team

2017-11-25 Thread Gabor Karsay

Dear Debian Multimedia Maintainers,

I'd like to join the team to help with packaging and also to get some 
help with my own package. I'm the upstream author and maintainer of 
Parlatype which was kindly reviewed by Juhani Numminen and Ross Gammon 
and sponsored by Ross. It would be nice if it could be included in 
pkg-multimedia-maintainers.


I have some knowledge in C (in combination with GObject/GTK+), autotools 
and a bit of Python. I learned it myself, I didn't visit a technical 
school or university.


I used to package my own program for a while (for private/learning 
purposes and in launchpad). I started originally with Ubuntu, now my 
primary distro is Debian stable (actually still oldstable) and unstable 
next to it. I'm familiar with git, but I didn't use it for packaging 
yet, so the workflow of git-buildpackage is new for me.


I'd like to help with some "easy" packages for the start, small 
applications, no libraries. I spotted some of them, for example devede. 
I also noticed a lot of packages with uscan errors which seems like a 
good task for the start.


I'm subscribed to pkg-multimedia-maintainers, pkg-multimedia-commits, I 
have an Alioth account, I'm kind of familiar with the technical side of 
managing bugs (but less with the policy, e.g. are bugs closed when fixed 
in unstable, testing or stable?), I agree to review other's patches and 
packages although I think others probably know better than me.


Like most humans I have limited free time, my contributions would be 
occasional but I'm confident that both the team and me would benefit 
from membership.

Gabor

Yeah, we've worked together for a long time (well, several months
anyway) :)  Indeed I believe I have some faults in having it join :P


Re: audacious: I went ahead and uploaded it, following Simon's pressure
as he wanted to have a newer version in Ubuntu's 17.10.  I don't quite
understand why it stayed in git without anybody uploading it, but then
again the person doing the updates in git never asked for sponsorship
either…

Ok, cool. In Ubuntu, I've focused on providing security updates for VLC
to all of our stable releases. If I can be of any assistance there, I'll
be more than happy to help (feel free to take my uploads from Ubuntu).

Awesome, Lubuntu ships with this by default (I'm the Lubuntu Release
Manager) and I would like to get a more up-to-date version in 17.10, but
let's see if I can get it in before Feature Freeze. ;)

Hi Simon,

Welcome to the team. I have seen you doing some Ubuntu Release stuff
here and there. Actually, I had read somewhere that new account creation
was switched off because we are about to move to something based on
Gitlab soon. But it seemed to work anyway.

Vlc already has many uploaders listed, but most of the recent work has
been done by Sebastian. I would check with him before starting work on
anything. There are probably lots of bugs that need triaging as a start.

Audacious looks like it could do with some love. So feel fee to get

Yes - welcome to the team.

I have added your packages to the Multimedia Blends page, and they
should eventually appear here:
http://blends.debian.org/multimedia/tasks/drums

Your ITP bug for dgedit did not really contain any information about the
package (other than it was needed for drumgizmo to be in main). So I
grabbed some words about the package from the upstream website. Feel
free to use & improve on these words for your real debian/control
package description.

Ross

Hi Robbie,

I CC you as I don't know if you are subscribed already to mailing list.


 I found out about this team when I took over the RFP for mplayer.  Since
 then, I've been reading the mailing lists, and trying to become more
 involved with the rest of multimedia packaging.


You should create your alioth account
https://wiki.debian.org/DebianMultimedia/Join

Read about our team:
https://wiki.debian.org/DebianMultimedia

And about our packaging work-flow:
https://wiki.debian.org/DebianMultimedia/DevelopPackaging


 My purpose in joining is twofold.  First, I'd like to help out keeping
 Debian amazing at multimedia, and second, I'd like to see mplayer
 specifically getting back into the archives.  I wrote a set of packaging
 for mplayer, and I mmicove (sp?) has as well.  I'd like to work with the
 team to see that back in the Debian archives proper.


I can't speak about these packages as I care mostly about audio packages

regards

mira

Actually I have much more interest in software providing bare speech

will help as much as I can.

I rarely use: asunder k3b advene lame

listed in that list (gstreamer, sox, libsndfile, wavesurfer, ...).

2012-06-06 Thread Giulio Paci
Hi all,

I have been subscribed to this list for some time now and I would like
to join the pkg-multimedia-maintainers group.

Sometime ago I packaged shotdetect, a recommendation of advene, and I
would like to maintain this package within the group. Olivier Aubert,
maintainer of the advene package, is also interested in shotdetect.
The package has recently been uploaded to Debian stable by Thorsten
Alteholz.
I just uploaded my git repository on github:
https://github.com/giuliopaci/shotdetect so you can have a look at it.

I also packaged these other tools that may be of interest to this group:
http://mentors.debian.net/package/sptk
http://mentors.debian.net/package/spro
Although they will probably need some clean up.

My main interests are speech recognition, speech synthesis and audio
processing. And I am willing to package and review packages related to
these fields.

My knowledge of the BTS system and the Debian multimedia packaging
workflow is limited, but constantly increasing.

I am also member of the Collaborative maintainance of packages group,
where I co-maintain basilisk2 with Jonas Smedegaard.

Giulio.

2012-04-16 Thread Arto Jantunen
Hi all,

I'd like to join the team. I would be bringing with me an existing
package of mine (moosic). In addition to that I'd like to work on
getting the remaining packages that d-m.o has and Debian doesn't into
the archive. I had planned to start with devede, but that just got
done. The main packages that are still missing for me are avidemux
(being worked on) and Mythtv (not started, as far as I can tell).

I have been subscribed to this list for some time now and I'm also on
the irc channel. I'm familiar with the BTS (and the git packaging
workflow), and willing to review work from others.

No, not at all.

But, please make sure that you find another person in this team that
supports the inclusion of the package. This ensures that even if you
get unavailable or you are too busy to continue maintaining the
package there is at least one additional person in the team that knows
the package.

Hi pkg-multimedia members.

I'm Cyril Lavier, a 25 years old system administrator from France.

I would like to join the team to co-maintain the audacious and 
audacious-plugins packages as Benjamin Drung proposed me on the bug 
#639374.


I have been working on Debian/Ubuntu packages since 2006, becoming 
Ubuntu Member in 2007.


My involvement in the Debian project is more recent, as I started 
backporting packages at mid-2011 (nginx and audacious). And now, I help 
Kartik Mistry maintaining nginx packages.


I'm familiar with the BTS, I would be pleased to contribute to this 
project and help on packages/issues.


Looking forward to work with you.

Thanks.

Hi!  I'm one of the Mozilla maintainers in Ubuntu and also help maintain 
the xulrunner rdepends of which 2 are part of this team (mediatomb and 
vlc).  I would like to join so that I can help with the packaging work 
for these products so that both distros benefit from any updates that I do.


I have:
Created an alioth account
Subscribed to both lists
I'm familiar with the bts to some extent and would like to help where I 
can.


I can't commit to a lot at this point and I see the vlc is pretty well 
taken care of, but would like to get mediatomb updated.

Excellent, I started to become a bit concerned about mediatomb, so I'm

Request to join pkg-multimedia team on alioth.

2010-07-18 Thread Luke Yelavich
Greetings all
I'm writing to formally request membership in the pkg-multimedia alioth team. 
My primary interest in doing so is to help Debian and Ubuntu keep multimedia 
packages in sync as much as possible. I would also like to keep a branch of 
Ubuntu's diffs for the jack related packages in the alioth git repo. These 
changes are minimal at the moment, and I hope they stay that way.

I currently maintain j-a-c-k in main for Ubuntu, and plan to get jackd2 and 
jackd-defaults migrated to main for Maverick. The only diff Ubuntu cufrrently 
has for j-a-c-k is to drop celt support, due to celt being in universe. Celt 
was consdered for promotion, however since the API was not considered stable at 
the time, it was decided to drop support for celt from j-a-c-k. The same diff 
will be in place for jackd2 once it also makes its way to main.

Any more questions, feel free to ask. My alioth username is themuso-guest.

Thanks in advance.

Yep. But jackd2 is implemented in C++, and these symbols somehow are
public or leak into the symbols file (also with -fvisibility=hidden).

 However, I understood from the last discussion that those are not
 really bogus, but are some sort of internal (server-lib) API, which is
 not allowed to be used by regular clients. Is this correct?

Exactly.

 Anyway, I really think that for jack it is much better to use a shlibs
 file.

I'm completely fine with a shlibs file. Makes things a lot easier.

These symbols are being explicitly exported (check the header files). See below.

 Exactly.

The symbols cannot then be hidden (otherwise the server will not find
them). So they will be a noise factor _forever_. I'm wondering if this
is a correct design decision (having a single library for both a
public and a private API), but it's not my call to make. I think we
should trust upstream and just shove a libjack0.shlibs with =0.116,
and be done with it.

My current understanding is that, yes, we want it to happen. The main
issue is people who know how having the time to make it happen.

If memory serves, Adrian knows the jack code and upstream the best of
anyone here. Reinhard knows about library magic stuff from working on
ffmpeg. Jonas knows lots of cdbs magic that might be helpful.

Do any of the three of you have time in the very near future to push
this forward? 

Are there others on the team paying attention with time, interest and
knowledge not mentioned above?

 My current understanding is that, yes, we want it to happen. The main

 IIRC, the consensus was that the squeeze release was way too close to

 + possibly in time for squeeze, which is Reinhard's question: are we
 still going to try for it, and therefore, do we need to get a more
 detailed note to release-team (last week) about what it entails for
 coordination between this team and them.

I think it's not too hard to revive the jackd1 package, so we can at
least provide jackd1 and jackd2 in squeeze.

Given the tons of C++ symbols in jackd2, I'd also suggest to make the
jackd1 package the official dev package and also the donator of the
symbols file.

If possible, we should file a bug report against release.debian.org to
coordinate the transition, but I'm not debian-experienced enough to take
the lead.

Yes, I am currently packaging my first Python package that will be
pushed into Debian. For the same reasons as you mentionned, I
personaly prefer packaging Python applications with the GNU autotools
myself. :) There might be some progress in the next few months,
though, with the Distribute fork of the Python setuptools.


 I also see that you are familiar with jack. The most pressing question

I will forward this to my colleague who knows more than I about the
JACK library itself. He developed one of the JACK Gstreamer element,
so he should know more than me. I think both JACK and jackdmp (or jack
2?) are API and ABI-compatible... But I am not sure about this at all.

Hello,
I want to join the Debian Multimedia Package Maintainers Team. (whatever
it's called) My alioth username is alexandrequessy-guest.

My name is Alexandre Quessy. I am a developer from Montreal. I am
interested in free software for new media arts, nameyl audio, video and
electronics. I have been using free software for many years now. I am
the co-author of some free software projects such as those listed above.
I am mostly interested in the Python and C++ languages. Amongst the
tools I like are Twisted, GTK+, GStreamer, gettext, the GNU Autotools,
bash and vim. I have a strong background in image processing, music
theory, web development, communication protocols and software process
management.

I am motivated to become a Debian maintainer, and soon an uploader.
Debian and Ubuntu are my favourite operating systems. I have ongoing art
projects with free software, and you can read about them on
http://alexandre.quessy.net

Project on which in am author or co-author:
(I intend to package the three packages listed first.)
  * toonloop: Live frame by frame animation tool http://toonloop.com
  * scenic: Desktop application to stream audio, video and MIDI over RTP
http://svn.sat.qc.ca/trac/scenic/
  * lunch: Distributed process launcher http://svn.sat.qc.ca/trac/lunch
