Can you please package it?
dav1d is in the NEW queue since 1,5 years. It was rejected after 1
year in the NEW queue and I still don't have news about the last
attempt. I am losing motivation for this package, I will probably
convert this ITP to RFP...
I guess the rejection is what you quoted in
https://bugs.debian.org/916333#25
Thanks, btw, for quoting like that to make conversations with ftpmasters
more transparent. Much appreciated!
Did you try re-upload since the rejection? If not, why not?
If that was the only reason given by ftpmasters for rejecting, then I
would suggest to simply a) make sure that the licensing/patenting
situation as you understand it is explicitly laid out in
debian/copyright file, and then b) re-release the package.
When re-uploaded, I can suggest to try nudge ftpmasters by logging into
irc channel #debian-ftp and kindly request a review of the package.
If you haven't given up yet, then would you be interesting in
maintaining the package collaboratively? I can offer to help if you
would be interested in doing so e.g. in the Multimedia team.
If you have given up already, then I can offer to take over.
Kind regards,
- Jonas
