Re: Creating Compiz group



Hi,

While pulling compiz regularly from upstream http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~compiz-team/compiz/0.9.12/ , I still have a few lines of local patches concerning the default configuration and build dependencies for Debian, plus a bugfix for mouse cursor visibility which hasn't made it into the official repository yet, so I'll likely continue to build my own packages for Knoppix, but I'm very happy to know that compiz makes it back into the Debian mainline. :-)

ok yo'll do as you prefer. But I'm sure Your package and Ours, i.e.

git+ssh://ksamak-guest@git.debian.org/git/pkg-a11y/compiz.git


have large common points and they should be the Debian paakages. So if xou don't want to "upload" your work in Debian repo, the idea with this group is:
- Ubuntu has treir package, as well as upstream
- you pull in your branch ubuntu and apply your patches.
- We (Debian+Hypra) sznchronize your branch with HEAD to upload to Debian with your satches, our patches, etc. (that Ubuntu and upstream can use ii they like).

Of course, it'd be still greater if you would want to upload your patches directly in HEAD of the new project, so that we upload directly without synchronizing 2 branches HEAD and yours.

But well, it's to respect any policy that this project was created, so that any existing project has its branch but sync is easier (as sync between branches instead of repo).

Regards,
