This seems like a great exercise. It would be good if the Candidates page could be updated with links to the LP bugs created to reduce double work.

MOTUs and MOTU Hopefuls! For a long time we've wanted to move away from using the wiki [0] for new package requests. This is for many reasons, wiki pages like this can get rather large (we have 450+ requests right now), doesn't work well with our normal workflow (bugs on Launchpad were we can comment, prioritize, close, etc.), and get easily overlooked by both users and developers. After talking with Launchpad developers it was determined that they best approach would be to simply file bugs against Ubuntu and tag them with needs-packaging . My only concern with this approach was that users had to know the tag before hand and properly add it. I thought we would want to have 1 URL that would take them to the bug filing page in LP *and* have the tag already there. The code for this [1] has already been included in the Beta Launchpad. For people with Launchpad Beta access you can test this out by going to [2] or [3]. So, do we want to start migrating off of Candidates? I think it'd be an interesting project for Hopefuls and other people wanting to get involved with MOTU to work on. Just go through the list and check to make sure that the app is even distributable and isn't already in Debian/Ubuntu, then move the contents to a bug report and tag with needs-packaging . -Jordan [0] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Packages/Candidates [1] https://launchpad.net/malone/+bug/79671 [2] https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+filebug?field.tags=needs-packaging [3] https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+filebug-advanced?field.tags=needs- packaging -- Ubuntu-motu mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-motu
