Hello, following Daniel's comments and questions regarding the ability to support/keep the Getdeb packages in a proper quality level I have decided to try the MOTU way.
I have a few starting comments and questions. The REVU main page is terrible, what is the sort criteria for the packages list ? The following detail should be presented on the main list: - last uploader comment, last reviewer comment, package status This would allow a better assessment for both the reviewers and uploaders on packages needing more activity. I couldn't found a description of the package live cycle. Questions: 1) What is the REVU package life cycle ? I couldn't find a description on when/who classifies the package as properly packaged, and what happens at that time. Does a MOTU member need to adopt the package as a maintainer so that it gets into Universe ? 2) Should I send a notification to the MOTU informing about that I need reviewer's feedback or I should expect proper activity from the reviewers notification ml ? (I have submitted my first package yesterday and I was expecting a quick "this is bad" comment). I didn't submitted my suggestion on the revu Development Center, because it seems to be broken: http://revu.tauware.de/cgi-bin/trac.cgi The packaging guide ( http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/packagingguide/C/index.html) is very clear, most of the remaining documentation and process description on how to get a new application into Ubuntu is quite puzzling.
