At DebConf I learned about the existence of the nice wnpp-alert script. It is a real shame that this script is somehow hidden below the "noise" of many other nice scripts. So I easily detected a set of packages I would really like to keep in good shape because my day to day work depends from them. My first target was the image viewer feh. As you see I just took over this package but my experience in several teams has shown that it is much better to find a team which uses a common repository for packaging issues. Unfortunately I can not easily find an appropriate team for this package. In the end I could imagine a Debian Imaging DIS (Debian Integrated Solution - formerly known as CDD, but renamed since DebConf). But it would kind of overkill to start a new project for this - I feel the need for such an effort, but I can not do it myself. And finally it would not help for my next target gcal - I also would fail to find a reasonable team. So my question is: Do you think it makes sense to create a VCS on Alioth where we could build a pool for those packages that are orphaned or just taken over and do not find a better home. I would feel much better if my packaging stuff would not reside only on my local disk but in a commonly accessible VCS and the location to this VCS is clearly mentioned in the VCS fields of the control file.
