Bug#574371: ITP: go -- The compiler for Google's Go programming language.

2010-07-04 Thread Ivan Wong

Hi guys,

Sorry I have been a bit busy in the last couple months. Actually 
there was a discussion at debian-mentors ML and you guys might be 
interested in:


http://lists.debian.org/debian-mentors/2010/03/threads.html#00200

According to some of the suggestions I have made a few fixes:

http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/g/google-go/

Currently I see two show stoppers:

- the ugly wrapper for those env. variables. I don't really want to 
have it but $GOROOT is also what the build process depends and makes 
changes to. I will be surely more than happy if we can have a better 
solution.

- missing man pages

Collaborative maintenance makes much sense for a platform like Go. 
Do let me know what do you think.


Thanks,
-Ivan.

Oops, that’s not permissive at all.  Unless there’s a license that
permits modification available elsewhere, I think these files will
have to be omitted from the .orig.tar.gz.

Would you be interested in pursuing collaborative maintainance?  Given
a packaging repository at hg.debian.org, I imagine there are many people
involved with debian who would be interested in pitching it.

Looking forward to your thoughts,
Jonathan

Bug#574371: ITP: go -- The compiler for Google's Go programming language.

2010-03-17 Thread Ivan Wong
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name: go
  Version : 2010.03.15
  Upstream Author : The Go Authors
* URL : http://golang.org/
* License : BSD style
  Programming Lang: C, Go
  Description : The compiler for Google's Go programming language.

 This is the compiler for Google's Go programming language:
  - The compilers produce fast code fast. Typical builds take
a fraction of a second yet the resulting programs run
nearly as quickly as comparable C or C++ code.
  - Go is type safe and memory safe. Go has pointers but no
pointer arithmetic. For random access, use slices, which
know their limits.
  - Go promotes writing systems and servers as sets of
lightweight communicating processes, called goroutines,
with strong support from the language. Run thousands of
goroutines if you want—and say good-bye to stack overflows.
  - Go has fast builds, clean syntax, garbage collection,
methods for any type, and run-time reflection. It feels
like a dynamic language but has the speed and safety of
a static language. It's a joy to use.

Bug#296633: ITP: gaim-hotkeys -- Global hotkeys that can be configured for toggling buddy list and reading queued messages of Gaim.

  Description : Global hotkeys that can be configured for toggling buddy 
list and reading queued messages of Gaim.

This plugin is assumed to be used together with the docklet plugin. When
you only use keyboard 90% of the time, you don't want to touch your
mouse for just a pending message.
