Hi there..
My original intention was to wait until my long standing debian
application completed and then do the packaging but the application
process seems to be rather FUBAR. Both my NM and also the sponsorship
of my other packages are both in a frustrating quagmire because the
other folks involved are so very slow.
FYI I hit the same problem with another package (spca5xx) which had
other interested parties. I ended up creating an alioth account and
now several people are maintaining that package. It worked out really
well.
Let me ask ...
Does collab-maint involve more than just creating an alioth account?
Either way, I am very happy to create such an account for wifi-radar
or even hand over the ITP. Wifi-radar is a very useful tool which IMHO
really must be included in etch.
My struggles with NM and sponsorship should not get in the way.
BTW wifi-radar is already packaged in ubuntu and the package (to my
eye) looks okay so I was planning to just import that package into
Debian. I don't have time to reinvent the wheel!
I may end up dropping my Debian activities anyway ... I have started
to look into joining Ubuntu instead - the NM process has pretty much
tested my patience to the limit. Although there have been no issues,
my application has been in the works since 2004-01-28. Life is too
short :-)
