Shaun, your last upload of monotone to Debian is from March 2007, and testing and unstable still carry 0.31 (0.33 is in experimental). Are you planning to continue maintaining the packages in Debian? If not, I can sponsor Richard, as I am a Debian Developer and an everyday user of Monotone.
Shaun's ability to work on Debian is very limited at the moment. Richard's snapshots are not currently suitable for direct inclusion in Debian (there's been no effort to mark Debian bugs closed, and there are a small number of places where an official package needs to diverge from the snapshots. I've actually prepared an 0.35 package suitable for Debian just yesterday - you can get it from http://mrtock.ucsd.edu/~zack/debian/. It'd be great if you could check that and upload it. Longer term, I understand that Shaun is interested in having someone take over the package - perhaps that could be you, in collaboration with me and Richard. I'm not interested in running the NM gauntlet myself, but I'd be happy to take on some of the work in maintaining this one package. zw _______________________________________________ Monotone-devel mailing list Monotone-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/monotone-devel
