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, -- Mats Erik Andersson, fil. dr <mats.andersson@gisladisker.se>
