Ah cool. Will they put it in their SVN repo?

In debhelper packages you have to add it to debian/[package.]docs, not
sure about cdbs, perhaps read the cdbs HTML docs in /usr/share/doc.

Fair enough, perhaps you could help them out by providing a patch.

I contacted them before, and somebody told me I could keep my ITP and
ask here for a sponsor, provided that I state clearly this is a GNOME
package. I put them in copy just in case...

done. I have left the 'new upstream' entry.

done - is there a common way to tell cdbs which files to install?

I prefer leaving the entire file, as stripping the 2 "irrelevant" parts
would almost mean rewriting the file - I will however ask upstream to
split this file.

done - I hope I have all of them.
The updated package is available at:
http://packages.kirya.net/debian/pool/main/f/fast-user-switch-applet/

Thanks a lot for your comments.

Shouldn't you contact them directly? They probably even have a package
already prepared in SVN. Their list is here:

http://lists.debian.org/debian-gtk-gnome/

Some comments:

  * debian/changelog: since this is the first debian release,
probably best to strip it back to one changelog entry that
closes the ITP.

backport gnome 2.14 to sarge (and upload to backports.org)

  * README: please strip bits that are irrelevant for people using
binary packages. Might want to ask upstream to split it into
separate files
  * might also want to install HACKING
  * debian/copyright: You seem to ignore some of the copyright
notices in the .po files and even the source
code?!! ./src/applet.c especially. Please do a proper
debian/copyright file by using mc and grep to find all copyright

RFS: fast-user-switch-applet: applet for the GNOME panel providing a menu to switch between users

2006-03-24 Thread Julien Valroff
Hi,

I am looking for a sponsor for fast-user-switch-applet, an applet for
the GNOME panel providing a menu to switch between users.

Homepage: http://ignore-your.tv/fusa/
Licence: GNU GPL
Copyright: James M. Cape <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

This package is now part of GNOME 2.14, and should thus be sponsored by
a member of the GNOME team.

My package is largely based on Ubuntu package for the previous release.
It is linda and lintian error/warning free.

You can find both signed sources and i386 binary package at:
http://packages.kirya.net/debian/pool/main/f/fast-user-switch-applet/

Feel free to comment, especially on the description if not appropriate.

Thanks a lot!
Cheers,
Julien
