Why you packaged it ignoring my ITP?
Why you are telling me it *NOW*, after upload?
- I spent my time in studing and packaging them
- In the meanwhile I was in contact with upstream deciding wether or not
include it in Debian (dicts seems to be old and unmaintained).
last mail with upstream was last week, I'm wainting for an answer.
- In my ITP I explicitly said I would accepted any dict packaging
requests.
- Anyway, even if you considered my ITP "language specific" or too old,
you had to tell me your intention of packaging it. A lot of people
asked me about .debs I have in my apt-able site without any ITP
opened, only because I packaged it with my name in my site.
- If you want to maintain it, do it. But be correct and contact people
asking if you may do anything on their own ITPs.
