Bug#907838: RFS: 2 pkgs once part of emacs-goodies-el: bm-el/201808-1, mutt-alias-el/1.5-1

No strong preference. Staying with the team norm seems more sensible. Regards, -- ,''`. : :' : Chris Lamb `. `'` la...@debian.org / chris-lamb.co.uk `-

Hi Chris, Thank you for sponsoring this upload! Also, thank you for these comments and critique. By the way, replies to these RFSs are automatically CCed to debian-mentors@d.o https://lists.debian.org/debian-mentors/2018/09/msg00033.html If you would still prefer that I not reply post-RFS, please let me know and I'll stop :-) All but two points have been addressed in my local copies.

The specifics are: bm.el: 2000-2015 bm-sync.el: 2016 bm-tests.el: no header, could be potentially 2000-2018. * git blame shows a 2013-2015 range. Sean (from the Policy and Emacsen Team) prefers more strict, discrete Copyright dates rather than globby ranges. To be maximally strict requires a Files section for bm.el as well, but other Emacsen Team members ACKed merging it into "Files: *". What approach would you prefer for future RFSs?

Package: sponsorship-requests Severity: normal Dear mentors and Chris, This is a joint RFS for two packages that were previously part of emacs-goodies-el: bm-el/201808-1, and mutt-alias-el/1.5-1. The Debian Emacsen team is 96% done transitioning emacs-goodies-el to a dummy transitional package, and I would like to finish this by 12th Sept, so that users have four months to respond to the fact that we've dropped a number of addons from the package. If something we dropped is useful to someone we'd like to get it back into the archive before the freeze :-) Package name: bm-el Version : 201808-1 Upstream Author : Jo Odland URL : https://github.com/joodland/bm License : GPL-2+ Section : lisp It builds this binary package: elpa-bm- visual bookmarks for GNU Emacs To access further information about this package, please visit the following URL: https://mentors.debian.net/package/bm-el Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command: dget -x https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/b/bm-el/bm-el_201808-1.dsc -- Package name: mutt-alias-el Version : 1.5-1 Upstream Author : Dave Pearson URL : https://github.com/davep/mutt-alias.el License : GPL-3+ Section : lisp It builds this binary package: elpa-mutt-alias - lookup and insert expanded mutt mail aliases To access further information about this package, please visit the following URL: https://mentors.debian.net/package/mutt-alias-el Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command: dget -x https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/m/mutt-alias-el/mutt-alias-el_1.5-1.dsc Cheers!
