[...] 20:50 nyu if you want to help, you could subscribe to pkg-grub-devel (debian) and grub-devel (upstream) and see if you can comment on bug reports I'm doing a few seconds of triage of wnpp bugs. If I understand correctly, the grub team, like most maintenance teams of core packages, is looking for helpers and co-maintainers. I don't see grub listed at http://wiki.debian.org/Teams so it seems possible that potential helpers exist who do not know how to get their feet wet without establishing contact first and potentially (in their eyes) having to commit to helping out before knowing what it is like. What do you recommend for such hypothetical people? Could you suggest a few words of wisdom here, for someone to digest and add to the wiki as time allows? For example: - what mailing lists should interested people subscribe to? - are there existing documents on how to test new versions of grub in qemu to test changes or triage bugs? Is there an upstream page with documentation of the boot protocol and other helpful technical background? - any confusing policies or other pitfalls for new contributors? - what kind of help is needed at the moment --- tracking upstream development, testing, forwarding bugs, finding the commit that fixes bugs known to have been fixed, backporting changes to stable, hacking on maintainer scripts, packaging snapshots for experimental, reviewing proposed changes, coordinating uploads, finding good downstream fixes to apply, or something else? Once the information for potential helpers to get started is easy to find, I think this bug can be closed.

Bug#392266: RFH: openscenegraph -- 3d scenegraph
Hi Loic et al, Loic Dachary wrote: In order to speed up the production of the package when a new upstream release becomes available, I'd like to get help. Being able to upload the package within short delay is greatly appreciated. Debian openscenegraph maintenance seems pretty healthy these days. Is this RFH bug still useful? YOU don't have to be an official Debian Developer to help. I like this message, though. Maybe it could go in README.Debian for a larger audience. :) Ciao, Jonathan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Bug#472709: RFH: sql-ledger
Hi, Raphael Hertzog wrote: I do need such a web-application. Until smbledger is ready I'll continue to maintain sql-ledger in a low-maintenance mode. Thus I transform this bug into a RFH (Request for help) so that if anyone want to take over the responsibility of this package, he can. I'm doing a few minutes of wnpp triage. The above sounded more like an RFA (request for new maintainer) than an RFH, but based on the PTS info and changelog it looks like you already have an active co-maintainer. :) Do you have advice for users of sql-ledger who could be able to help out? I can imagine this bug being resolved by adding a new page under http://wiki.debian.org/Teams or by adding notes to README.Debian explaining the current maintenance policy and how to contribute usefully.

Bug#483107: RFH: hotkey-setup -- auto-configures laptop hotkeys
Hi Petter, Petter Reinholdtsen wrote: The hotkey-setup package is used to map special keys to key events, which is required to get laptop keys to work properly. I'm not sure if it is still required, as I have seen some messages indicating that a new framework is being worked on. Thanks for your work at making sure Debian has good hardware support. The kernel is supposed to take care of making hotkeys emit the proper codes these days. I am already swamped so I will not be subscribing to hotkey-setup through the PTS, but if someone complains of lack of support for hotkeys (or finds themselves needing to install hotkey-setup for any reason) then please feel free to redirect their questions to me by cc-ing li...@packages.debian.org.

Bug#511243: RFH: boinc
Hi, In January, 2009, Rene Mayorga wrote: Ok, I still thinking that this bug should be a RFH, so I'm doing now :) I was sifting through wnpp reports and noticed this one. I think making this an RFH was an excellent idea, and you seem to have recruited a reasonably sized, active team. Of course it would be nice to recruit even more people, but it seems that momentum via this bug report has stopped. And on the other hand the BOINC team has a quite visible presence that makes at least some ways to help clear: http://wiki.debian.org/Teams/DebianBOINCMaintainers http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-boinc/boinc.git;a=blob_plain;f=debian/TODO.Debian (Side note: if that TODO file were renamed to debian/TODO, then dh_installdocs would install it as TODO.Debian to the boinc package.)

Bug#519175: RFH: proftpd-dfsg -- versatile, virtual-hosting FTP daemon
Hi, I was sifting through wnpp bugs and saw this one. Francesco P. Lovergine wrote: Note that it is now active a pkg-proftpd alioth project with a git repository under http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-proftpd/proftpd-dfsg.git;a=summary Other add-on module packages can be added under pkg-proftpd area easily, just ask to join the pkg-grass group. Indeed. Since it is not documented at http://wiki.debian.org/Teams, maybe it is not easily discoverable. Would you mind if I add a subpage there? It would contain information answering basic questions about how to work with the team that are not likely to change often (to avoid growing stale). Template taken from http://wiki.debian.org/TeamTemplate. Something like Infrastructure -- Packages: http://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=pkg-proftpd-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org Alioth project: https://alioth.debian.org/projects/pkg-proftpd/ Interacting with the team - Email contact: pkg-proftpd-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org Usual roles --- Anyone on the team can commit good changes to the repositories and ask on the list for review and upload. Task description Proftpd has more than 20 different non-core modules available and some of them are important to users. See http://castaglia.org/proftpd/#Modules for a list. The pkg-proftpd team aims to package all important modules and to keep proftpd-dfsg and its modules maintained well in Debian. Get involved All packages under the pkg-proftpd umbrella have Vcs-Git and Vcs-Browser fields declaring the git repositories where they are developed. New add-on module packages can be added easily. Just ask on Alioth to join the pkg-proftpd group. Then the information about how to help would be easy to find and this report would not be needed any more. Sensible?
