I would like to hear Giuseppe about his concerns wrt this point. Sure, I just meant to highlight that he's probably more qualified than other people (surely more than me for instance) to judge on this. I do hope he has already thought about it :), but it would indeed be nice if he can share his opinions here. We are already tracking[1] chromium security issues, this is another webkit fork and it is a real pain; but given the fact that now we have three members in the webkit security groups (Fathi is one of them), from the Security team's (CCed) point of view there is no objections.

I am not saying there is no way to do that, just that its tough and we have to learn a lot before we can consider putting chromium in a stable release for debian. After a quick look to their release blog, I noted a lot of announcement for the dev tree, but not for the stable tree. Anyway could you explain your plans for chromium in Debian please? When do you intend to upload it in unstable or experimental? BTW, yesterday I uploaded gyp. FWIW, I concur with Alexander Sack. We should not yet include Chromium in Squeeze. Let's give it some time to settle down and observe if it's actually maintainable. The issues raised by both Alexander and Tom Callaway of Fedora seem very credible to me. If Chromium in Squeeze+1 can be build with the system copy of webkit, that's an added bonus. Likewise, we shouldn't include libv8 yet (or exclude it from security support). Yeah, in any case we might want to get this in experimental/unstable so we get a feeling how this can be maintained.

For me and our users it's definitely not the case, we prefer to use Debian repositories exclusively, and our own where we add other packages that are not available in Debian ourselves. Simply because we rely and need Debian security updates in some managed (monitored with hobbit, and manually checked if all went fine) for our well over a hundred workstations.

If you think different talk to me on IRC. Let's wait how bad it blows up once ubuntu lucid enters stable release mode. Just for the record, I don't want to stand in anyones way; however, the package is as ready as it can be; the problem is really on upstream release process. It's completely unclear when to release and what to release and that is what we are trying out in ubuntu lucid.

A few comments. Note that I am neither a mentor for you, nor someone who imposes preferences through sponsorship, but I do like to put care into packages. Thus, the following comments are not criticisms and because that's how I do things is an acceptable answer in all cases. That's ok. I could definitly be more loving about packaging details :). However, suggestions welcome! - /usr/lib/connman/scripts/dhclient* should really go to /usr/share, don't you think? Yes, thats probably the accurate place to ship it, but i never saw the point for going through maintenance overhead if the amount of files isn't significant enough and they are not shipped in an arch all -common package at all. - any reason you didn't use debhelper to install/remove/invoke the initrd scripts? Out of habits I would think. Also I felt more comfortable to implement what it does than to buy some magic. - Is it intentional that you have Debian/Ubuntu addresses as maintainer/uploader? That's basically a work vs. spare time conflict I try to avoid. Most time I put into connman is done during my worktime so I decided to keep the credits there. - http://moblin.org/projects/connection-manager is the homepage, not just moblin.org, right? You are absolutely right. When i started this package there was no real clear direction upstream and they changed their homepage a few times now. The new and hopefully final homepage is http://connman.net/ Filed: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/402998 - Is there a Vcs-Browser? ATM, you should be able to just go to the Vcs-Bzr location with a browser. You can use the same url for branching and the web. Anyway, I will think about splitting it up in future. Filed: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/402999 - does the short description have to mention Intel? - I'd change the capitalisation. - Maybe the long description could be rephrased to be a little bit more Debian-centric? After all, this is for Debian/Ubuntu, not Moblin, right? I used the description published by Moblin at the time I did the initial package. This has changed now so we could update short and long description based on what is on connman.net. I don't consider myself an outstanding package description author, so please go ahead and submit text snippets suitable; but dont go for a too debian/ubuntu centric approach as there are more unnamed downstreams that might want to reuse our package description. ;). Filed: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/403001 - The Standards-Version is up to 3.8.2 I think. Right, I am usually lame about standard versions. - nice work on debian/copyright. I still prefer the old format, but I can see how this is beneficial. - How does your version numbering scheme work? 0.30+git.1.5b69740e1 Have you considered just using the git-describe output, like I did e.g. for mdadm: 3.0~devel3-43-g2800528-1 the used scheme is basically implemented in debian/rules ... it allows you to do snapshots and tags. We use some variant of that approach in other packages as well. I haven't checked git-describe, but I am not sure how feasible that is as we regularly package up git snapshots that have no tags. I'll upload tonight, whether I hear from you or not. Thanks, - Alexander -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Bug#475022: ITP: connman - Linux Connection Manager
Package: wnpp Version: N/A; reported 2008-04-08 Severity: wishlist Package name : connman Upstream Author : Intel Corporation License : GPL Homepage : http://www.moblin.org/projects/projects_connman.php Description : The Linux Connection Manager project provides a daemon for managing Internet connections within embedded devices running the Linux operating system. The Connection Manager is designed to be slim and to use as few resources as possible, so it can be easily integrated in other Moblin-based embedded systems. It is fully modular system that can be extended through plug-ins, to support all kinds of wired or wireless technologies. Also, configuration methods like DHCP and domain name resolving are implemented using plug-ins. The plug-in approach allows for easy adaption and modification for various use cases. The project currently contains the following components: * connman The core Connection Manager daemon (connmand) and plug-ins for Ethernet, WiFi, DHCP, and resolvconf. * connman-gnome The GTK+-based user interfaces for an applet and a properties dialog. Connection Manager uses modern infrastructure like D-Bus, HAL, and netlink to provide a native integration into the operating system. While HAL and netlink are used on the system level to communicate with networking devices, the whole separation between system daemon and user interface is done through D-Bus. At the moment the following extra components or applications are required: * wpa_supplicant (with D-Bus extensions) for WiFi access * dhclient for the DHCP plug-in * resolvconf for the domain name resolver plug-in * libgdbus for D-Bus and GLib integration (provided by the project itself) - Alexander -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Oh, and there are some screenshots [2] too. BTW, I was not able to extract a good orig.tar.gz from upstreams archive. Hence, I did not upload the really bloated 60 MB full mozilla tree source tarball that I used to build this package from. Anyone interested in the diff, just drop a mail.

Bug#266824: progress?

Thanks Mathieu Nope ... upstream did a mess with gtk2 support in the 0.2 release of the standalone app. The current HEAD is completely broken (they currently do a major rewrite of the backend). I must admit that for me it appears that it might be good to take a look at lightning - the thunderbird calendar extension. Maybe it is in a similar good state as mozilla calendar - actually usable. -- GPG messages preferred. | .''`. ** Debian GNU/Linux ** Alexander Sack| : :' : The universal [EMAIL PROTECTED] | `. `' Operating System http://www.asoftsite.org | `-http://www.debian.org/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

retitle 266824 ITP: mozilla-sunbird -- standalone calendar application based on Mozilla's XUL thanks Yes, I plan to produce the mozilla-sunbird binaries.
