Package: maint-guide
Version: 1.2.20
Severity: wishlist
Hi,
I believe this has been mentioned before on lists but I don't see it reflected
in the newmaint guide: new contributors should be highly encouraged to adopt
orphaned packages, instead of creating new ones.
Of course there will always be new programs that are worth packaging, but new
contributors should be aware that work on viable existing packages (as opposed
to packages that should be removed) is much more likely to attract sponsoring.
I'll happily provide a patch (eg. for section 2.1, choose your program), if
you agree on the principle. I'm not quite sure though whether that would
suffice given that the whole document is aimed at creating packages from
scratch, but it would at least be a step in the right direction.
Cheers,
Serafeim
