Maintainer/Sponsor sought for new Web Content Management System
Greetings folks. It's been suggested to me that I send an email to this list seeking a volunteer to act as Maintainer/Sponsor for a Web CMS that I'm lead developer on. It's a pretty mature project (under development for over five years) and is released under the GPLv3 license. As far as I know there is no other similar free software package available; all of the competition is (very) expensive and proprietary. It manages collections of photo stories and video clips of an adult nature and contains: - a Complete search/retrieval system - Extensive web-based content/collection management tools - Extensive APIs implemented in both Perl and PHP5 - a customisable example web site template - command line collection management tools - a download system - Complete database schema with documentation - Massive Documentation library (approx 450 pages) We've released .deb packages via our sourceforge download area for the last couple of releases, so the build architecture should only need tweaking. There's already a fairly active discussion going on over on the webapps list about some of the security and permissions issues involved. I do not feel it is appropriate that I myself become the maintainer as I think it needs the checks and balances of someone else reviewing the releases before they come out. Hopefully someone with an interest in the area will be prepared to come forward and take on this package. You can find out more by emailing me directly or visiting the project pages at http://wacsip.sourceforge.net and/or https://launchpad.net/wacs We are currently planning on a new release (0.8.5) for mid-March.

updates on mentors.debian.net without *orig*
Hello, if I already have uploaded my package to mentors.debian.net: i.e.mypack_1.0-1.debian.tar.gz mypack_1.0-1.dsc mypack_1.0.orig.tar.gz and it was sponsored, I should remove the files from mentors.debian.net. But after awhile I will make an updated version. When I create the new version with debuild, i.e. 1.0-2, the file mypack_1.0-2_amd64.changes is made without a line for mypack_1.0.orig.tar.gz (the usual behaviour) and the upload to mentors.debian.net ignores that file. Then mentors.debian.net only have the following files: i.e.mypack_1.0-2.debian.tar.gz mypack_1.0-2.dsc Is this o.k. and the usual way?

To have a really working (and dget-able) package on mentors.d.n you need to upload with the original tarball included. Add the -sa option to your build. If the package is in the archive your potential sponsor will just upload it without the .orig.tar.gz.

It's the usual way for uploading directly to the Debian repositories, so that's the default. However, it's not what you want for inviting prospective sponsors; they are better served by having the full source package available, including upstream tarballs. To get that, specify unconditional inclusion of the upstream tarballs by passing the ‘-sa’ option to ‘dpkg-genchanges(1)’. -- \ “Those are my principles.
