I've just started a Debian source package on git.debian.org for ganglia-web

git-import-orig -u 3.4.2 \
   --filter=debian/* \
   ../ganglia-web_3.4.2.orig.tar.gz

It is in Debian's collab-maint tree (which means any Debian developer or
maintainer can collaborate on it) - but it could potentially go on
github too


http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=collab-maint/ganglia-web.git;a=summary

To get this into Debian, a couple of things are needed:

- copyright - I've started a debian/copyright file listing the authors
of each piece of work (everything has to listed, for all original code
and every piece of javascript that has been copied, etc)

- non-minimized versions of Javascript code - the ganglia-web release
tarballs needs to include the regular, human readable version of each
.js file, otherwise Debian doesn't consider it open source

$ ls js
combobox.js                   jquery.flot.stack.js
create-flot-graphs.js         jquery.gangZoom.js
***d3.v2.min.js               jquery.liveSearch.js
***excanvas.min.js            ***jquery.mobile-1.0.min.js
ganglia.js                    jquery.multiselect.js
***jquery-1.7.1.min.js           ***jquery-ui-1.8.14.custom.min.js
***jquery.ba-bbq.min.js          jquery-ui-timepicker-addon.js
jquery.cookie.js                 protovis-r3.2.js
***jquery.flot.crosshair.min.js  ***rickshaw.min.js
***jquery.flot.min.js            tasseo.js

The minimised versions are accepted by Debian, but only if they are
accompanied by the regular versions

Please bear in mind the Debian freeze date for Debian 7 (quite close to
the book deadline too)
