Andreas,
> You can check the bug page[1] and you should have received an e-mail that the bug was created. (As I said there is also a script itp_from_debian_dir which fills in all the questions for you when calling in the Git repository - but from a pedagocial point of view its correct that you did this step at least once manually.) Great. That sounds like a very useful script. I'll be sure to utilize it in the future. > To be clear here: We have just created a Git repository with the packaging. From the existence of this repository *nothing* will happen. A Debian Developer (like me) needs to upload it to the new queue and than we need to wait for the new processing by ftpmaster. Currently this takes about 1-3 days. > > But if *you* want to be the maitainer of the package you need to get a login on salsa.debian.org and become a member of the team. I have created an account on salsa.debian.org and I requested access on the "Debian R Package Maintainers" group. Is this what you mean by becoming a member? I don't believe I've been granted access yet as there's still an option for
me to "withdraw access request" on the main page for the group.
> Currently there is my Copyright for the packaging (autoinjected) and I'm also changelog owner and Uploader (in d/control). I'd prefer if you add yourself to Uploaders if you intend to maintain this package. You should also insert the ITP bug number into d/changelog. Once you have done this I will upload the package. I will be sure to do these tasks once I have access. >Kind regards > > Andreas. Thanks again for all the help! I feel like I'm learning a lot from this process!
