Package: sponsorship-requests Severity: wishlist Dear mentors, fellow debian lovers,
I think it's time to re-empower some users, who like fancyness in their desktop, with compiz! Compiz also addresses a matter of accessibility, with its integration of many visual adaptation features, so it would be a significant addition to our impaired users. BTW, a couple new a11y features have also been pushed to upstream, hoping they take it into consideration. I rather concentrate on the Mate desktop, and plan on releasing an accessibility enabling package lot, called mate-accessibility (see http://git.hypra.fr/hypra/mate-accessibility), to facilitate several configuration profiles for different impairments. The first step is getting compiz back in debian. It has been cleaned up, and polished with the last version of upstream. I have followed the previous advice of Adam Borowski (on ITP), and set the jpeg and png deps strait. As for functionnal tests, compiz is used by myself, and approx ~20 people, and is ready from sid to jessie(-backports). I await more instructions and pieces of sound advice, of which i know debian people have plenty. I am looking for a sponsor for my package "compiz" * Package name : compiz Version : 1:0.9.12.2 Upstream Author : multiple (see AUTHORS) * URL : https://launchpad.net/compiz * Licenses : GPL/LGPL/MIT Section : x11 It builds those binary packages: compiz - OpenGL window and compositing manager compiz-core - OpenGL window and compositing manager compiz-dev - OpenGL window and compositing manager - development files compiz-gnome - OpenGL window and compositing manager - GNOME window decorator compiz-mate - OpenGL window and compositing manager - MATE integration compiz-plugins - OpenGL window and compositing manager - plugins compiz-plugins-default - OpenGL window and compositing manager - default plugins compiz-plugins-extra - transitional dummy package compiz-plugins-main - transitional dummy package compiz-plugins-main-default - transitional dummy package compiz-plugins-main-dev - transitional dummy package compizconfig-settings-manager - Compiz configuration settings manager libcompizconfig0 - Settings library for plugins - OpenCompositing Project libcompizconfig0-dev - Development file for plugin settings - OpenCompositing Project libdecoration0 - Compiz window decoration library libdecoration0-dev - Compiz window decoration library - development files python-compizconfig - Compizconfig bindings for Python To access further information about this package, please visit the following URL: http://mentors.debian.net/package/compiz project is also uploaded to alioth in pkg-a11y section: https://alioth.debian.org/projects/compiz/ git clone git+ssh://$u...@git.debian.org/git/pkg-a11y/compiz.git To check out built packages, and the mate-accessibility pkgs: http://debian.hypra.fr/debian/import_key (use sid for last version) Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command: dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/c/compiz/compiz_0.9.12.2.dsc -- Ksamak hypra.fr Team
