Intend to take over wmaker, application?



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

Hi,

	my name is Marcelo Magallón, and I'd like to take over the
maintainance of wmaker, since there are several bugs against wmaker, in
particular a mixed dependencies bug. I have tried to contact the current
maintainer, Neil A. Rubin <nar5@po.cwru.edu>, but he doesn't seem to be
at that email anymore.

I have several local packages for WindowMaker:

libproplist0_0.7.1-1_i386.deb
wmaker_0.12.3-0.1_i386.deb
(*) wmaker-data_0.1_all.deb
libwmaker0_0.12.3-0.1_i386.deb
libwmaker0-dev_0.12.3-0.1_i386.deb
libwraster0_0.12.3-0.1_i386.deb
libwraster0-dev_0.12.3-0.1_i386.deb

(*) not finished yet.

The wmaker package closes all bugs filed agaisnt Neil's package.

A couple of weeks ago I sent an application to
new-maintainer@debian.org, but I haven't received an answer yet. I
maintain ftp://simula.efis.ucr.ac.cr/pub/debian, and I already have
accounts on master, mmagallo, and mmagallM, but my PGP key is not in the
keyring.

As a side note, Neil also maintains AfterStep, but I don't want to
maintain that. If anybody is interested, and Neil is really no longer
maintaining it, it may be worth for somebody to take over it, since
WindowMaker and AfterStep, along with Enlightenment seem to be pretty
popular among Linux folks, according to a recent poll on Slashdot.org, 
(population sample over 1000)


Marcelo.
