Hi all,
We are proud to present the new version of mentors we have been working
on for the past few months. In addition to moving from python2 to
python3 and dropping from a deprecated framework (pylons) to a
maintained and widely known one (django), we are pleased to also
announce some new exciting features!
* Manage your package subscription directly from your account.
Previously only stored as an internal list, you can now add/remove any
packages from your watch list.
* Important information are getting to you quicker.
On the package page, you can now glace in one look at the changelog,
the homepage or the VCS infos. Vcs-Browser is just one click away.
* Per-upload deletion.
Uploaded to a wrong distribution? Just remove the one upload by
clicking on the red trash.
* Detection of the NEW uploads.
Packages having little value to hang around mentors after uploading to
NEW, they will now be automatically removed.
* Multi-user uploads.
Working with someone to publish a new version to unstable and to
backports? You can now both upload the same package to mentors
without restriction.
Beside those new features, this update brings a lot of bug fixes, some
security fixes and a few other small improvements.
Now that the big migration is done, new features will be coming, so look
forward for a even more improvements!
If you find any bug or you want a new feature implemented, don't
hesitate to write us an issue on the salsa project:
https://salsa.debian.org/mentors.debian.net-team/debexpo/-/issues
We are also always looking for more contributors, and now that the site
is not using an obscure framework anymore it should be easier than ever!
