Re: Orphaned Packages



Hi Klaus

Sure, you can prepare the package and then give it to an official debian 
developer who can upload it for you and therefore act as a kind of sponsor. 
You are still responsible for the package and you are the maintainer and 
responsible for bugreports, keeping the package in a good shape, ...

A good procedure is to finish your work on the package and then write a mail 
to debian-mentors@lists.debian.org and ask there for a sponsor or even 
contact a debian developer if you know any personal.

Please also note that you can ask any further question according to your 
packaging on debian-mentors@lists.debian.org as this is the appropiate 
mailinglist for that.

Cheers
Steffen
