Re: Bye bye Debian Science

Hi Sylvestre,

That's very sad to hear, but I guess you must be pretty busy at Mozilla.

Are there any of the packages you used to work actively on in need for
additional maintainers or adoption ?

have admin permissions on alioth to manage the registrations (for now,
we are only two admins and the other is as inactive as I am).
Ideally, this person should be motivated to "reboot" the Debian Science
team. The policy should be improved, the package list cleaned up, etc.

How much work do you reckon this task would require ?

All the best for your future at Mozilla,

Ghis

Hello guys,

Just a quick email to let you know that I am going to quit this team.
Indeed, since I started my new job at Mozilla, I am way less interested
in Science package. My Debian time is more focused on the LLVM toolchain
and some other non scientific packages (besides Scilab).

I am a bit sad to leave this team that I helped created a while ago but
clearly, I haven't been very active in 2014 (besides trying to find
active maintainer for hdf5, openmpi, blas, lapack, etc). By the way,
thanks for the folks who are actively working on this key packages.

I would like to take this opportunity to ask if someone would like to
have admin permissions on alioth to manage the registrations (for now,
we are only two admins and the other is as inactive as I am).

No need to be a DD to work on it.

Cheers,
Sylvestre
