The first upload of any non-native package should either include the Homepage field or an explanation of why there might be no homepage. Subsequent uploads of any package should ensure that debtags are complete. I've added both as requirements for my own sponsoring, once I get back to normal levels of sponsoring activity. Worth adding these two to the mentors FAQ? http://oldpeople.debian.org/~codehelp/#debtags http://oldpeople.debian.org/~codehelp/#homepage I've also added a bit of extra text to some of the sections, noticeably on communication: "All communication by email only, preferably on the debian-mentors mailing list and wherever possible, signed with your GnuPG key. Pestering me on IRC is likely to end with you needing a new sponsor (or at best being ignored). I'm always busy, I have always got lots of stuff that needs doing before your upload, so ask me nicely and I'll look at moving you up the ToDo list. Make sure that your requests for sponsorship on the mentors mailing list contain all necessary information, this includes listings for: Programming Languages, Licence, Version, Authors, Description and Homepage. ITP or RFS content that does not detail the programming language or does not include appropriate Licence information *will* be ignored. If the upload closes a bug that is not an ITP bug, the full title of that bug should be included in the RFS along with the current severity of that bug." (and if any DD can remember how to fix oldpeople sites to show up on people again, let me know - the ordinary fix has not worked) -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.data-freedom.org/ http://www.nosoftwarepatents.com/ http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/
