Bug#754441: gmastermind.app

2014-08-02 Thread Riley Baird
 You can add this yourself in the task list, they should be self explanatory.

 Are you talking about this task list:
 http://blends.debian.org/junior/tasks/puzzle ? If so, I don't see
 anywhere that I can edit it. Do I need to be part of the Alioth project
 first?
 
 This is maintained by the Debian Blends team (currently - there is no
 practical need to but there was no request to change this).  I'd happily
 proxy this entry for you.  However, for the moment the package is not
 yet in Debian nor the packaging in any Blends VCS.  I have recommended
 to create a Debian Jr. VCS to do the packaging which has not yet
 happened as far as I know.  Perhaps also Debian Games Git would fit and
 than the information about the package becomes available for the tasks
 page you mentioned above ...

Ah, okay, it would be better to wait until the package is in Debian
before editing the page.

As for a VCS, I've heard a lot about having one. tbh, gmastermind.app
probably won't need one, as it doesn't look like it will be upgraded any
time in the future, but I'm fine either way.

 That's no point.  The *packaging* might change over time and if you want
 some help in packaging you can most effectively get it if the packaging
 is in VCS.  I have set one precondition for my Sponsoring of Blends
 effort that the package is maintained in VCS for good reasons.

Oh, okay. I was actually offered a VCS with pkg-gnustep, but I turned it
down because I assumed that I wouldn't need one. Seeing as I'll probably
need a VCS for maintaining this package, I'll try asking them if the
offer is still valid.

Bug#754441: gmastermind.app for Debian Jr

2014-08-01 Thread Riley Baird
Greetings, -jr!

I am trying to find a sponsor for my package, gmastermind.app. I
submitted an RFS to this list a while ago, but in retrospect, I did not
explain the relevance to debian-jr.

Mastermind is a game that encourages logic and critical thinking for
children (and adults) of any age. The rules are not difficult to learn,
but for a surefire winning strategy, both patience and skill are required.

gmastermind.app is lightweight (the .deb is only 23.9kB), so there is no
need to worry about it using too much space.

Specifically, I think that gmastermind.app should be included in the
Recommends field of the junior-puzzle package.

If you are interested, or just want more information, then please do not
hesitate to respond!

Thanks for reading,

Riley Baird

Yes! That is very welcome.

Join the Debian Jr Alioth project. Someone else than me has to approve
you though, I haven't migrated to my Debian account on Alioth yet. Tell us
if you don't get access quickly

https://alioth.debian.org/projects/debianjr

Checkout the wiki documentation

https://wiki.debian.org/DebianJr

https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/DebianJr

Ask if you need help!


 If you are interested, or just want more information, then please do not
 hesitate to respond!

I assume that the package uploaded to mentors.d.n today is the current
one for the RFS

http://mentors.debian.net/package/gmastermind.app

I'll have a look at this within a week. There seem to be quite a lot of good
review already.


In the long run, I encourage you maintain gmastermind.app in the
Debian Jr team, and, thus, becoming a team member!

I've sent through a request.

Yes, it is.

Thanks. Hopefully, all of the problems will have already been ironed out. :)

Yes, in the long run, that is definitely something that I would like to do!
