Imho, it's very nice to see upstream developers approaching Debian (or distributions in general). It's good to know that there seems to be interest in working together closely :-) > I am active within the Hugin project.

Hrm, not sure what exactly you want to know (about enblend). As of now, the latest release (3.2) is available in testing and unstable (Lenny ships 3.0, while 3.2 is available through backports.org). The package seems to be used quite a bit, while the number of reported users seems to be rising fast (see [popcon]). Currently, the only outstanding issue that has been reported is the embedded version of libvigraimpex. It would be nice to be able to use the packaged, unmodified version at some point in the future (see [bts542258] for details). Besides that, I don't really have any special plans for the future besides getting the latest versions into Debian when they are available ;-) [popcon] http://qa.debian.org/popcon.php?package=enblend-enfuse [bts542258] http://bugs.debian.org/542258 > If you guys agree, I'd like to develop mutual understanding and a list > of things that we can do for you and you can do for us, so that together > we can bring the best possible Hugin experience to Debian and (by > extension) to Ubuntu users.
