We currently have no really good system for requestion uploads / making it easy for DDs to spot packages in need of a review/upload. (Back in the days we had PET for that purpose.) What we have is: - https://tracker.debian.org/teams/pkg-perl/ (which apparently still has no "ready for upload" section) - DMD, the UDD-backed maintainer dashboard: https://udd.debian.org/dmd/?email1=pkg-perl-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org which also provides an RSS feed which I'm using (but I might miss things there because it's noisy) - watching #debian-perl-changes (which I also do but ever more noise) - asking on the list or on IRC in #debian-perl Please note that both for DMD and humans looking at a repo, the distribution in debian/changelog must be changed from UNRELEASED to unstable (or other suites) to show that a package is ready and no longer WIP. Summary (for you and other non-DDs): if noone picks up a package in need of review, feel free to ask here on the list or on IRC. > I have my PGP key, so also wondering whether all email should include same > or just selected emails - if so what governs inclusion? Personally I'm signing all my emails (as long as I send them from my laptop which has the private key) but that's a matter of taste. > I have updated Git local and origin, and starting to exchange keys to build > Web of Trust. > Would be happy to engage others to exchange keys. Let's hope there will be physical meetings again in the not so distant future, which can also be used for keysigning.
