Hi Dariusz,

Would you consider maintaining both tanglet and connectagram within
the Debian Games Team (cc-ed)? It'd be easier for you to find a
sponsor within the team rather than on debian-mentors, and it would
allow fellow team members to contribute towards those packages as well
through the team's svn/git repos. You can find more information about
the team, including how to join, on this wiki page [1].


Here's a very quick review for your packages:

tanglet (1.2.2-1) unstable; urgency=medium
...
  * Split packages to tanglet-data and tanglet

  ^ Without a corresponding Breaks+Replaces relationship declared
against tanglet, upgrading the package from 1.1.1-1.1 -> 1.2.2-1 won't
work (dpkg will complain about overwriting a file in tanglet which is
also in tanglet-data, and will therefore fail). See Policy 7.6.1 [2]
for the correct approach.

Please also rename debian/patches/debian-changes-1.1.1-1 and give it
(and the other patch) a DEP-3 header.


connectagram (1.1.2-1) unstable; urgency=medium
...
  * Split packages to connectagram and connectagram-data, containing word list
    files

  ^ Same issue affects this package as well, again refer to Policy 7.6.1 [2].

Regards,
Vincent
