(I changed from python to science for a really good reason: python uses svn and science uses git, and I'm a really a git user and supporter :p )

Wonderful, I added a line on that list.
Just some questions:
-I did not create the git on debian-science (I'm not yet accepted by the team), but I put the url as it will be if accepted
(in the meanwhile the git is also here https://github.com/LocutusOfBorg/pyqtgraph )
-I'm not sure about the field "Link to Web sentinel"...

Sorry, I was not so clear, I wrote "unsuccessfully" because the irc user asked me many times about your mail, because he wasn't sure he ad the right mail address.
For this problem please forget about it, as soon as I'll be accepted on the science team (I cannot see the kgb configuration file since I'm not in the science group) I'll take care of it. I have already setup this on pkg-boinc, so I have little knowledge about the troubleshooting of this stuff.

I would like just ask you if you can forward to me the kgb mail you received, just to have a starting point about the problem.


Have a nice sunday,

Gianfranco
