Hi, On Sat, Dec 20, 2008 at 06:19:26PM +0100, Raphael Hertzog wrote: The basic idea is quite simple, we want to ensure that each package is maintained as well as possible and for this we need to ensure that it has one or more active maintainer(s). Hence every X months, each maintainer receives a mail with a link to a web form where he'll have a list of all the packages that he maintains/co-maintains and for each package he has to answer several questions that explain his relationship with the package (the answer are preseeded with the values he selected the previous time so that he can quickly skim over it if nothing has changed): - what kind of maintainer he is - active (responding quickly, forwarding bugs, …) - passive (responds only to major problems) - backup (not doing anything unless solicited) - if the package needs an active maintainer or not (most perl modules are well maintained with a single passive maintainer) - if the package needs help from another volunteer I like the general idea, here are a few points/questions: Have a procedure to not receive the mail in the future (perhaps making it possible to (manually, via email?) re-enable at some later time) We could integrate various heuristics/data in the process to help the maintainer recognize that he's (not) keeping up and that he needs help or maybe that he's no more active but only passive. If the maintainer doesn't respond, he automatically enters the MIA process and the package is quickly marked as needing help/attention from someone else. How long is the time span after the maintainer enters MIA? Perhaps after X unanswered mails? Also, it would help to clarify that enters the MIA process is not the same as the maintainer is MIA which might be confusing. filippo -- Filippo Giunchedi - http://esaurito.net PGP key: 0x6B79D401 random quote follows: Endian little hate we -- Anonymous (?) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-qa-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Dear PTS maintainers,
Could you please consider redirecting to the QA page of the
appropriate source package automatically without the 10 second wait?
In my opinion, I don't think you would be causing many people trouble
by doing this.
Additionally, could you, in the case of a redirection, add a message
saying You were redirected here because the binary package XX is in the
source package YY. ?
The obvious solution is to use a mod_rewrite map for packages with multiple
sources via the PTS sources.map.
Something like [not tested]:
RewriteMap binaries dbm:binaries.db
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/([^/]+)$
RewriteCond ${binaries:%1|NonExistantSource} !NonExistantSource
RewriteRule ^/([^/]+)$ /%1
where binaries.db is a binary: source db whenever binary != source
I have however no idea how to show the message without using trickery.

And if the code runs often enough, it will probably be the first to submit a bug about a new upstream version in most cases. I'd don't really like the idea of filing wishlist bugs automatically. new upstream version bugs sometimes have more value than an automated ping, because it provides a point of contact if the maintainer need to ask why he should really update his package (instead of saying let's release with this version, for example). I tend to agree here, in my experience many maintainers get pissed if a new upstream version bug is opened (automatically or not) shortly after the upstream release because they might be (in contact with) upstream and/or follow the upstream lists. OTOH in many cases the upstream bugs are really useful if the maintainer simply misses the release. Anyhow, I'd go for a period of 30-40 days to give the maintainer the possibility to catch up and don't be too aggressive. filippo -- Filippo Giunchedi - http://esaurito.net PGP key: 0x6B79D401 random quote follows: In God we trust, everybody else pays cash. -- somewhere in England -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

You can then mark the packages you have filed bugs for with NNN: and use the

your list with the real bug ID (so you dont have to wait for the BTS to come

Right now only ubuntu's and bts' patches are listed, however adding another

IMO it should be useful to have the debian version to which the patch applies,
however figuring that out from ubuntu's requires some black magic that I don't

That doesn't seem to work at the moment. http://packages.qa.debian.org/x/xfractint.html It has a working watch file, and using uscan locally it detects the new upstream version, but the page doesn't detect anything. I don't know if the PTS pages are updated (infact I'm planning to add a timestamp in the bottom of every page to find this but it ain't easy since cvs.debian.org anonymous access is denied and no nightly tarballs are provided). Anyhow new watch files are scanned once a month (or whenever the script extract_watch.py is ran, it is a intensive work though, the script scans every non-native package .diff file in the archive (main, contrib, non-free of both US and non-US) and extract the relevant watch file) BTW, It would be neat, if the page would complain about a missing watch file. this would be okay but this issue has been already discussed. Complaining in PTS about a missing watch file means to force maintainers (as they will receive bug reports from the users, too) to include watch files and a lot of maintainers (especially ones in direct contact with upstream or which follow upstream development) won't like that. As I stated before the right way for now seems to manually file wishlist bug reports against packages suggesting a watch file (suggesting means including a working watch file for the package) and let the maintainer decide. Given that, also a lintian warning would be okay to add :) kind regards, filippo -- Filippo Giunchedi GNU/PG key: 6B79D401 Random signature below: A child of five would understand this.

add debian/watch file to packages
Hi debian-qa! having a package upstream up-to-date is important and this is why we have debian/watch files used by uupdate. Fortunately the PTS checks and reports if a new upstream version is available IF it founds the debian/watch file for package. Unfortunately only a few packages provide this file, partial results (I stopped at pool/main/p/phpgroupware-inv using www/bin/extract_watch.py from PTS) are below: out of 4827 diffs examined (I expect native debian packages to be updated upstream, CVS doesn't count of course) only 698 (14%) have that file (and it's not guaranteed it's valid) Usually it is expected for a DD to follow or at least be subscribed to program developing, while this is true for big projects this is false for small projects and there using debian/watch would be really useful. Unfortunately it is not habit to include the file, possible solutions are to mass-filing wishlist bugs (painful but probably effective) giving hints and guidelines how to write a valid watch file and/or manually find out the homepage and file pattern for package, perhaps using the informations from /usr/share/doc/package and/or googling. please comment on this, any hint/suggestion/insult is welcome! filippo -- Filippo Giunchedi GNU/PG key: 6B79D401 Random signature below: All language designers are arrogant.

Unfortunately it is not habit to include the file, possible solutions are to mass-filing wishlist bugs I'm not in favour of this idea, since I've working relationships to the upstream authors of the packages that I maintain. They always inform me via e-Mail if they make a new release and sometimes even which changes the release contains. So I'm not going to include an watch files since there's no need for them and I would close any bugreport asking for them. Using watch files should be an individual decision for each maintainer to use or not. indeed it is individual but I think the general case is: (busy) maintainer with a lot of small packages and subscribed to software-devel mailing list, so it's easy to miss a new release of a software. There watch files might help instead of the casual user browsing the website and notice the package is not up-to-dated. OTOH having the PTS stating new upstream version available blah blah can reduce BRs like hey, a new release is out! could you please update this package? kind regards and thanks for feedback! filippo -- Filippo Giunchedi GNU/PG key: 6B79D401 Random signature below: I worked myself up from nothing to a state of extreme poverty. -- Groucho Marx pgp5MKP4PG3wM.pgp Description: PGP signature
