Dear Cédric, dear ruby-team, I'm not quite sure, if I was the right man to help you. I'm no programmer at all, in real life I work as a director/producer of radio-features and radio-plays. Ok, I use Debian for more than two decades now, maintain debian-machines for family-members and some colleagues and therefore I now and then build and host my own debian packages (https://apt.klaumikli.de). But my knowledge of programming-languages in general and esp. ruby is at best very rudimentary. I stumbled into ruby when I started to use webgen as static website generator for my homepage ten years ago and actually when I try to adjust some erb or rudy code to my needs it's still more sensing or feeling and experimenting than knowing. Nevertheless: I'm interested in keeping at least the dependencies of webgen in Debian up to date and in the long run it would also be nice to get webgen itself back into Debian, as well as Matthias Siegels ruby-cssminify (https://github.com/matthiassiegel/cssminify). All this said, I'm willing to help. I subscribed the debian-ruby mailinglist and I created an account on salsa.debian.org (username: klaumi). I also modified the files in the Debian-directory of my latest personal package of ruby-cmdparse for an official release and built a local package of ruby-cmdparse_3.0.6-1 which seemed to be lintian-clean, lintian only warns about missing nmu entries: "W: ruby-cmdparse source: no-nmu-in-changelog W: ruby-cmdparse source: source-nmu-has-incorrect-version-number 3.0.6-1". So, my question: Is there an easy way to get my work into salsa.debian.org? I'm not familiar with git and all I read in the man-pages looked a little bit more complicated than uploading it ;-) Klaumi ----------- Klaus-Michael Klingsporn phone: +49-30-9445363 mail: klaumikli@gmx.de web: www.klaumikli.de
