That someone used to be me but, right now, I don't have time to sponsor or make the upload. That won't last too much longer though.

Jonas, feel free to be Maintainer and add Hector and I as Uploaders and then, Hector, if you could make an upload as soon as you can? Once my current real life issues are settled, I'll be happy to have xf86-input-tslib in my packaging list. If it's easier to have a pkg- group as maintainer or we could use the current Maintainer of dpkg-cross: http://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=debian-embedded@lists.debian.org At some point, I'd like to rationalise the situation with tslib so that default GTK+ installations don't need tslib installed unless a touchscreen is available. Once that's done, tslib can also come into the debian-embedded fold. Jonas, Hector, when you look at xf86-input-tslib, just have a look at the Ubuntu patches and see what needs to be done with those - I meant to do that before all this real life stuff came up. -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.data-freedom.org/ http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/ http://e-mail.is-not-s.ms/
