Bug#342859: ITP: fluxus -- Scheme script interpreter that creates graphics live with audio and OSC input data

2006-03-11 Thread Javier Candeira
Benjamin,

I was about to do an ITP for fluxus when I came across yours. My packages
for fluxus_0.8 are at http://hiperactivo.com/~kandinski/packages/fluxus/

I have also packaged version 0.9rc1, but I am not putting it up for download
till we solve some problems that I think are upstream bugs:
http://lists.pawfal.org/pipermail/fluxus-pawfal.org/2006-March/000341.html

I am telling you in case you would like to have me as a co-maintainer or any
other type of collaboration.

Regards,

-- javier candeira

Bug#356492: ITP: Spout - Tiny abstract b&w 2D cave-shooter

2006-03-12 Thread Javier Candeira
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: "Javier Candeira" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

* Package name: spout
  Version : 1.1
  Upstream Author : "Kumi" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* URL : http://www.din.or.jp/~ku_/junk/spout11.zip
* License : None
  Description : Tiny abstract b&w 2D cave-shooter

Spout is a small, abstract shooting game from Japanese developer Kuni.
It plays somewhat like Finnish cavefliers, except you have to erode
your surroundings with your ship’s exhuast. It’s great fun.
Your goal is to fly upwards as long as you possibly can, without
crashing or your time running out.

Currently the game is only source-available, as there is no license
provided. I have already emailed the developer asking him about releasing it
under a DFSG-compliant license.




Bug#356492: Spout package ready for upload

2006-05-27 Thread Javier Candeira
I have fixed all the snags that were holding Spout from DFSG and policy
compliance. So far I have:

- Got upstream author to include in his sources a license.txt with a
  DFSG-compliant (MIT in this case) license
- Written a manpage
- Fixed my .gpg situation and package is now signed with the same key as
  this email (which is also in the debian keyring)
- Made an icon and a .desktop file.
- Made sure package is lintian clean.

Spout can be downloaded from http://rowrcolo.net/~kandinski/packages/spout/

So I think that now, barring any involuntary bugs, Spout package is ready
for upload. I am looking for a mentor now: next on my list is writing to the
debian-mentors and debian-games lists.

Man, I have an ITP I haven't touched in months, but I am coming back to
health, so yes, I would like to finish the package myself, but yes, I would
also love to have you as a co-maintainer.

Is that good? I am sorry I haven't been able to get it in post-Etch, but
working with you would definitely be good. So let's make it work.

Thanks,

Javier

Bug#356492: reopened: Spout ready for upload for over a year

2007-06-17 Thread Javier Candeira
My ITP for Spout was just closed for lack of activity in the past year. Lack
of activity is due to the fact the game is packaged and ready to upload (or
at least ready to be examined by a DD for potential upload).

It compiles and runs just fine on Sid/Etch.

I just reopened it, and I am writing to -mentors and -games to ask for an
uploader.

Bug#356492: RFS: Spout, a tiny but wonderful black and white game (ITP with Bug#356492)

2007-07-04 Thread Javier Candeira
Dear Mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package Spout, a tiny black and white
cave-scrolling game built in c on top of SDL:

* Package name: Spout
  Version : 1.1a-1
  Upstream Author : Kumi
* URL : http://www.din.or.jp/~ku_/junk/spout11a.zip
* License : MIT
  Section : games

* Browse   : http://rowrcolo.net/~kandinski/packages/spout/
  and you'll find :
  http://rowrcolo.net/~kandinski/packages/spout/spout_1.1a-1.diff.gz
  http://rowrcolo.net/~kandinski/packages/spout/spout_1.1a-1.dsc
  http://rowrcolo.net/~kandinski/packages/spout/spout_1.1a.orig.tar.gz

Uploading this package will close bug 356492. It is policy-compliant and

Only difference between spout 1.1a and spout 1.1 (the version quoted in the
ITP bug) is the inclusion in the zipfile of a license.txt including the text
of the MIT license.

Thanks everyone who read this far!

Javier Candeira

2007-07-10 Thread Javier Candeira
Damyan, Thanks so much for answering, and thanks especially for agreeing to
work with me on the package.

Here are my answers to your requests. I have taken some time in replying to
your email because I wanted to finish everything first.

> I am wiling to sponsor this game, but there are some problems (for me;
> others may not share this):
>

Fixed.

> what is the license of the files outside the SDL directory. You

Upstream is very loose on licensing. His 1.1 release had no license
whatsoever, and I had to ask him to put a license in the code. He finally
put the MIT license in license.txt in the file and changed version to 1.1a.

I could hound him to put the header in every source file, I suppose, but I
have the email exchange proving that he really meant to license the game
this way. I hope this is enough.

Done.

Done.

Done.

> Please provide debian/watch file. See uscan(1) for the format.

Done.

Done.

Done.

Done.

Tried to, but I can't make it work. For some reason, spout gets installed
with user:group root:root instead of root:games. Is that something I am
doing wrong?

Thanks again!

javier

Bug#736523: python-future name clobbers existing Python package

2014-02-04 Thread Javier Candeira
Regardless of the status of concurrent.futures, there is an issue of
consistency with the 'python-future' package name. There is already a
'future' package for python [1, 2], and the naming convention
established in the Debian Python policy [3] would make users expect
this package be available as 'python-future'.

[1]  http://python-future.org/

[2] https://pypi.python.org/pypi/future
