Re: debian-science repository structure




Hi Frederic,

I have a suggestion if I may. Since some of the projects have common packages as prerequisits, I would put one more debtag:

science-common

just to avoid the overlappings.

Cheers,
George

 (As a maintainer of this tasks package) I would like to emphasize
that the names were chosen from existing debtag, namely

   science-astronomy for field::astronomy
   science-biology for field::biology
   science-chemistry for field::chemistry
   science-electronics for field::electronics
   science-geography for field::geography
   science-mathematics for field::mathematics
   science-physics for field::physics
   science-statistics for field::statistics
   science-typesetting for use::typesetting
   science-viewing for use::viewing

 The goal is the have the simplest common (even if not perfect)
namespace. I have renamed the corresponding wiki pages
(http://wiki.debian.org/DebianScience) accordingly.

 I advocate, when creating new categories in the repository, to take
a name already in a field::* or use::* (or other) facet of existing
debtags).

Best regards,
Frédéric Lehobey
