Details on nettoe-1.2.1



Hello all,

I am working on the packaging of the new release nettoe-1.2.1,
of which I am also the upstream coauthor, in addition to being
a junior member of the Debian Games Team.

Now, in #544916 I filed an ITA in response to an RFA issued by
the Debian Games Team.

At this very moment I have so far only assigned a correct value
for 'svn-bp:origUrl' to 

    '.../trunk/nettoe/debian'

and I have also uploaded

    nettoe_1.2.1.orig.tag.gz

to pkg-games.aliot.debian.org.


It is here my questions begin to torment me:

1) Should I keep the Debian Games Team as package maintainer,
   and thus add myself as Uploader, or should I impose myself
   as new package maintainer in debian/control? The latter
   option would better fullful #544916 in my understanding.

2) Following an earlier advice about small svn-commits, I could
   at the moment imagine my commits to trunk/nettoe/debian sub-
   devided like this:

   a) Jump Standards and Compatibility in 'control', 'compat' ,
      and a DEP-5 formulated 'copyright'.

   b) Make 'rules' use dh instead of many 'dh_*'.

   c) Finalise 'control' concerning Maintainer and/or Uploader.

   d) Register all changes in 'changelog'.

   This would correspond to "small and logical" changes.  Of course,
   further testing and sponsor-critisism would follow suit. Or, could
   there be a reason to make all four changes in one commit, and then
   do the corrections afterwards?


Best regards,
