Please review: Announcing a new Debian packaging tool: cme dpkg
Hello
Here's a much shorter version of the announce text I plan to add to
https://wiki.debian.org/DeveloperNews
Could you tell me if I got this right ?
Many thanks for Paul, Axel and MJ Ray for the comments on the first draft.
Come to think of it, should I send the longer (more promotional) version to
mentors list ??
All the best

Title: new Debian packaging tool: cme with dpkg plugin
cme and its dpkg plugin provide a new tool to help maintain Debian packages.
cme provides a GUI to edit package files and a CLI to modify or check these
files. Editing or modifying package file with cme automatically upgrades
package files to newer syntax.
cme stands "config model editor" and is a generic tool to edit configuration
files. cme requires plugin to work. The dpkg plugin (aka model) enables cme to
work on Debian package files. Currently, it supports control, copyright
(DEP-5), patches (DEP-3) and some other files like compat.
For installation and usage instructions, please read:
