Bug#1110469: ITS: laserboy
Source: laserboy
Version: 2016.03.15-1.3
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: Nicolas Schodet <nico@ni.fr.eu.org>, Richard Ulrich <richi@paraeasy.ch>, Debian Multimedia Maintainers <debian-multimedia@lists.debian.org>, 1038471@bugs.debian.org, Package Salvaging Team <team+salvage@tracker.debian.org>
Hi,
I'm interested in salvaging the package laserboy, in accordance with the
Package Salvaging procedure outlined in the Developers Reference[1].
This package meets the criteria for this process, and I would love to
assist in preserving and maintaining it. As the Salvage process
suggests, here is a list of the criteria that apply, in my opinion:
- NMUs (more than one NMU in a row).
- Bugs filed against the package do not have answers from the
maintainer.
- Upstream has released several versions
- There are QA issues with the package.
I believe the package would be a great addition to the Debian Multimedia
team, and I took the liberty to create the Salsa repository here[2]. If
you choose not to accept the ITS, I'd be more than happy to help you
move it to another location, such as debian/, or wherever you prefer. My
goal is to make it as easy as possible for you to join the team. I'd
also be delighted to assist in adding you as a team member if you could
share your Salsa login.
This package was highlighted in the Bug of the Day[3] initiative, which
aims to introduce newcomers to manageable tasks and guide them through
the workflow to solve them. The focus of this initiative is on migrating
packages to Salsa, as it's a great way to help newcomers become familiar
with a consistent Git-based workflow.
Kind regards
Andreas.
