Hi all,
if I understand correctly your interest in gsoap is only to get build
dependency suddisfied so I see we can evaluete two options, both to release
2.8.3:
1) I can continue to experiment my packages changes with current release
and if I succefully building all the packages I've planned I can package
2.8.3 as soon as we have it and upload it with your help
2) we can go on with actual package structure build 2.8.3 and postpone my
little revolution to 2.8.3+1.
If Mattias would like to take over the package becouse you are in a hurry
and I don't mind. I'm still interested in packaging for Debian but I know
I'm taking care of this package in the right way till now.
Bye
Stefano
