Re: Prospective package - Redmine #478741

Hello Richard,

I would suggest to read the New Maintainers' Guide 
(http://www.debian.org/doc/maint-guide). 
First its important to ensure that Redmine is not conflicting with the Debian
Free Software Guidelines (DFSG). See 2.1 of the DFSG.
If its not conflicting you can send a ITP (Intent To Package) message so that 
everyone knows you are working on the package.
After that play and enjoy to create the package.

I hope I havent forget anything. I am also just a beginning package builder.

gr,
Willem
