Buggy application Skype to be packaged?
Skype (www.skype.net) is a popular VoIP client, and there is a RFP (bug #255546) on it. The license most likely allows for the non-free section. As this piece of software is relatively buggy, I'm unsure what's better of adding it to experimental or unstable. If it was added to unstable maybe it could be held back from entering testing? The application is under constant development and the developers are giving considerable attention to the support forum. Because it is popular, under active development and unlikely to break other parts of the system, I think it should be packaged sometime soon.

RFS: tree - displays directory tree, in color
Dear mentors, I going to adopt the tree package[0] with the current maintainer's consent[1], but I need your help as I'm not sufficiently advanced yet in the NM queue[2] to do it completely on my own. In other words, please somebody sponsor my packaging. I've packaged the most recent upstream version 1.4b3 and contacted upstream wrt the bugs in the BTS. He is going to release 1.5 some time in the not too distant future, but doesn't have an exact timeframe yet. The current changelog reads as follows: | Changes: | tree (1.4b3-1) unstable; urgency=low | . |* New maintainer |* New upstream release (Closes: #252722) | + adds LargeFileSupport (Closes: #254011) |* Additional patches: | + don't set GENERATOR META info to Linux (Closes: #203143) | + better document -l switch (Closes: #162332) | + s/font-weight/font-size/g | + cosmetical fix in HTML output | + adjust Makefile for nostrip |* debian/copyright: add note about previous and current maintainer |* debian/control: | + add upstream home page | + bumped Standards-Version to 3.6.1 |* debian/rules: | + streamlined, best practices | + added check for noopt |* debian/watch: added |* Dropped unneeded postinst and prerm |* Acknowledge NMUs (Closes: #195058, #114791, #162259, #76594, #152385) | Thanks to Uli Martens and Susan Kleinmann! My packaging (lintian / linda clean, built in an up-to-date pbuilder chroot) can be found at http://ernst.uni-hd.de/debian/tree, upstream is at http://mama.indstate.edu/users/ice/tree/.

Re: RFS: netdump -- Dump kernel crash information over the network
[Third attempt for seeking a sponsor] Hi! I've uploaded netdump package to mentors.debian.net and am seeking for a sponsor for this package. The netdump client sets up the kernel to send crash dumps and/or console messages as syslog packets to a remote system. The netdump server listens to the network for crashed kernels to contact it and then writes the oops log and a memory dump to /var/crash before asking the crashed machine to reboot. Netdump relies on CONFIG_NETCONSOLE=m set in the kernel configuration, which is not present in 2.4 series Debian kernels, but is present in 2.6 series Debian kernels. So the package will not work with 2.4 Debian kernels. More information about netdump can be got from: http://www.redhat.com/support/wpapers/redhat/netdump/ I have got permission from netdump's current maintainer Jeff Moyer [EMAIL PROTECTED] to include it in the Debian, and who is happy to see its inclusion.
