To be more precise, the pkg-scicomp started way before the debian-science packaging team. We started Debian Science because many scientific packages don't belong to pkg-scicomp.
About the future, I have been in touch with Christophe (leader of pkg-scicomp) and Manuel about merging both projects. I don't want to talk for them but they both agree on this on the principle. The reasons are various: * many people are involved in both projects * debian-science has a scope which integrates pkg-scicomp * it is not obvious for new people which project contact to submit a package * it would avoid some duplicate work on administrative tasks Sylvestre -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-science-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
