I would inquire on IRC as well. Good support at irc.oftc.net on #debian-mentors
Tell them that you want to do an NMU release of packages in the ax.25 suite. They will likely be able to tell you whether you are ready, and if not, what you will need to do to become ready.
Let me know if you need a build and/or test environment. I can offer arm, mips, sparc, ppc, i686 & amd64/x86_64 hardware and can likely exercise tests on the 70cm and 2m bands.
KF7BMP standing by.
Hello C.J.,
as I have said, I have just started reading and learning about debian
packaging, policy and staff like that.
Of course I am interested in updating as much packages as I can, but I
don't thing it's going to happen any time soon.
If any of the OM's in debian ham list, thinks that I can be of any help
towards that direction don't hesitate to contact me!
Regards
Apostolos
