I was once addressing the packaging of e-cell myself but failed somewhere in the middle - three years ago? Somehow I feel that it would be lovely if you would find some energy reserves of yours to address the packaging of E-cell as I presume it would considerably raise the acceptance of Debian in biological labs. > 2007/1/29, Steffen Moeller <moeller@inb.uni-luebeck.de>: [...] > > Dear Moriyoshi and dear Changyan, please get in contact with each other > > for an exchange of ideas for the package.

Andreas or Charles (who also lives in Japan, btw), will add you to Debian Med and with it comes the access to the svn repository. This is a lovely setup for the communication between the sponsor, the sponsee and the community. It is (particularly for larger projects) only the "debian" folder that is injected to the repository, btw. Instructions are on the Debian-Med wiki page. I do not see any principal difference to general Open Source developments. Let us wait for what the direct communication between you and Changyan will bring. Knowing that you are affiliated with e-Cell, I of course hope that you will focus on a packaging of that rather than on the library underneath and hope to win you both for a fruitful collaboration in Debian Med.
