I discussed the advantages several times. Hello Andreas, I fully agree. However there is something broken in the mechanism. I lost my last debian sponsor who integrated versions of wims into the main repositories (sid). So there are bugs filed against the version of wims packaged in Debian main. I asked twice for a new sponsor, however people discovered probably that this package is a huge one, very intricated, due to the exuberant coding abilities of its only autor, Gang Xiao. For example the debian package is built at the expense of a load of modifications in the file tree, to comply with the FHS. For now, my only motivation was to make Wims packaged so it can be added to the CDROM Freeduc-CD without hassle. There was little testing on platforms other than i386. Another issue is the incompatibility with recent versions of maxima, still not resolved in the upstream. Andreas, would you mind being my sponsor for the wims packages? The last one was John O'Sullivan, apparently no more inside the debian developers. > > >These comprise the international part of WIMS too. > > > >Hung(2) Chao(2)-Kuei(4) <ckhung@cyut.edu.tw> is vice-president of OFSET > >in Taiwan, he helped a lot for the development of Free Software in > >Education there. > Well, the main point of my mail was that I've got the feeling that people in > Asia who try to form a FOSS group dealing also with Debian and educational > software in the mailin list <AOSSS@googlegroups.com> have no idea about > Debian-Edu (aka SkoleLinux).
