I saw libindicator and wondered why indicator-applet was not in the same batch and investigated and found your RFP and this led me to this mail. :) > > The missing source packages are AFAIK: > > - libdbusmenu https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libdbusmenu > > (no RFP/ITP known) > > - libindicate https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libindicate > > RFP: http://bugs.debian.org/560122 > > Interested in those, planing to package, will contact ITP-author. They are build-dependencies of several other source packages, so when do you expect to have a first version ready to test ? :-) > > - indicator-applet https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-applet > > RFP: http://bugs.debian.org/534556 > > No GNOME here, no way to test, sorry.

A team that would be very open to the upstream Ubuntu/Canonical maintainers. I saw that you used Git for the packaging, while I also use git for all my own projects, I wonder if it would not make sense to use bzr for those Canonical projects since they are all maintained in bzr, and it would make it more likely to have upstream directly involved in the team. What do you think? Maybe James Westby could write an HOWTO for DD that are used to git on how to best maintain Ubuntu's software within Debian with bzr-builddeb.
