Debian GIS Salsa membership request

[Alec Leamas <leamas.alec@gmail.com>]

Hi.

According to directions I have requested access to the Debian GIS project on Salsa.

The reason is that I am making an attempt to package opencpn, https://opncpn.org. I have so far worked with upstream, but now is the time to package some dependencies.

I have filed some ITP bugs on this::

  - opencpn: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=907065 
  - wxsvg: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=907068
  - unarr: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=907070
  - wxcurl: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=907071

Here is also some important usptream bugs:

  - https://github.com/OpenCPN/OpenCPN/issues/1124

  - https://github.com/OpenCPN/OpenCPN/issues/1113

I have been packaging for quite a few years, but mostly in Fedora. That said, I maintain lirc, a not that simple package together with a few other ones. I'm not a rookie, but OTOH I wouldn't describe myself as "experienced".

Happy to answer possible questions,

Cheers!
