Re: Bug#994594: ITP: time-decode -- timestamp decoder and converter



Hello Samuel,

I thought that uploader is the actual sponsor of the package, therefore
I added myself as maintainer.
With regards to permissions, there is no difference between Maintainer
and Uploaders, but I believe there are a few small differences like
the Maintainer being the one that receives emails when bugs are
reported (maybe that's the only difference).
Our policy says we must put the team in the Maintainer field and
humans on Uploaders, as seen: on
https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-binary.html#the-maintainer-of-a-package
It's worth noting that the naming of those fields should not be misled
with the idea of maintainer of the package; we say everybody in
Maintainer + Uploaders is the maintainer of a package.

Thanks for the clarification on this and providing the link.
This should have been:  Removed those swap files.
It was a typo, I didn't want to sound rude in any way.
No worries, it didn't sound rude but even if it did, I would assume
good intentions :)

That's reassuring. :)
After incorporating the changes requested by you, I think the package is
in a quite good shape already, don't you think so?
I believe there's just one last thing before I can sponsor the upload,
can you add the relevant Vcs-* fields and point to the repo under the
team?
I missed this one the last time as well. I added those fields in
commit 2a2b080b. Looking forward to the upload.

Thank you for your contributions!

Thanks for your help!


Best regards,
