Re: Bug#815675: ITP: ftpbackup -- Script to backups your data from a Debian system to a ftp space
* Jonathan Dowland <jmtd@debian.org>, 2016-02-24, 13:52:
- The script makes the job for me. It is simple, dead simple and suits
a usecase , my use case, and, moreover, it is a really early release.
Buggy? It's not perfect, It does not pretend to. But it will improve,
as any other free software project.
I can see it being useful, to you, for your script to be packaged in
Debian. What I can't see is it being useful for Debian.
I can't see it either.
To avoid unpleasant situations like this, I recommend to never combine
roles of upstream and Debian maintainer.
If you wrote something cool, instead of uploading it to ftp-master,
write a blog post about it. If it's really as awesome as you think it
is, somebody else will package it for Debian.
