I've just added you to the perl-team/modules group on Salsa, welcome aboard! I know that you've already found our docs at https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/DebianPerlGroup/Welcome https://perl-team.pages.debian.net/ (especially policy.html and git.html) and also our IRC channel - so there's not much more of onboarding info left, expect maybe: For adding new packages, please use `dpt salsa pushrepo'. The other dpt-* tools might be helpful as well :) Cheers, gregor > [1]: FYI someone suggested a while ago to help out with the smokeping > package and also suggested that we could bring it into the perl team.

To quote myself (from a private mail about a similar piece of software): "This thing doesn't resemble a CPAN distribution and doesn't use a perl build system (unless I missed something), it's just written in perl. So I think it's not a natural fit for the perl team as it probably has nothing in common with almost all of the other packages there; but it wouldn't be the sole outlier, so if you look for some co-maintainers who do at least some automated QA improvements, I won't object to adding it :)" Cheers, gregor -- .''`. https://info.comodo.priv.at -- Debian Developer https://www.debian.org : :' : OpenPGP fingerprint D1E1 316E 93A7 60A8 104D 85FA BB3A 6801 8649 AA06 `. `' Member VIBE!AT & SPI Inc. -- Supporter Free Software Foundation Europe `-
