hello all,

bauble as bauble is indeed dead, both the classic and the web version,
which by the way never saw light.

→ HOWEVER →

→ while Debian and ubuntu still distribute the grossly outdated bauble
0.9.7, development of bauble went up to version 1.0.56, which is still a
very decent option.

→ beyond version 1.0.56 development goes absolutely uninterrupted on,
now under the name ghini.desktop.  the last released version of bauble
informs the user about ghini.desktop, and its new releases.

→ there is no plan to substitute ghini.desktop with a web application:
there is a ghini.web, which serves a quite different task (integrating
databases),

→ there might come a ghini.web version allowing limited data insertion. 
this is not planned at all at the moment. 

→ other packages in the Ghini suite are two Android apps.

I have been working at a python3 ghini.desktop version, and hope to
release it before we reach EOL for python2.  I'm stuck with some strange
delays in database access, which I still need to pin down.

I have not been able to follow all necessary steps to put ghini.desktop
in Debian format, I'm sorry.  once there's a well defined package for
it, I might be able to keep it up to date, but the initial steps are far
beyond my limited ability to comply with strict rules.

Debian Science team?  what is it?

buona giornata, grazie,

Mario
