Quoting José L. Redrejo Rodríguez (jredrejo@edu.juntaextremadura.net): José sent a request to join the group on Alioth which I grantyed yesterday. > I'll be glad in joining to the group if it does not mean more work ;-) Not really. It just means you check out svn+ssh://svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-fonts/packages and look there how package maintainers have organised their work place (I suggest ttf-dejavu or ttf-sil-abyssinica as example... > Also if the group wants to package these fonts, I'll even be glader to > give you the ITP. My main purpose is include these fonts in Debian as We don't really claim to maintain all font packages. The group is still quite loose wrt this. We can probably take some packages over in case they become unmaintained but we still need someone particularly motivated for this or that package to take care of it. Here's what we use in ttf-dejavu: Maintainer: Debian Fonts Task Force <pkg-fonts-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org> Uploaders: Davide Viti <zinosat@tiscali.it>, Christian Perrier <bubulle@debian.org>, Eugeniy Meshcheryakov <eugen@debian.org> Here, Davide is the package maintainer. I've been added to Uploaders as well as Eugen so that we can "safely" upload the package in case of emergency without it to become an NMU. This way, bug reports for the package go to the fonts devel mailing list which has proven fine as of now. (we did setup a pkg-fonts-bugs mailing list but that seems to be slightly overkill)
