Bug#295311: RFH: mysql-dfsg -- mysql database client library
Package: wnpp Severity: normal I request assistance with maintaining the mysql-dfsg package. The package description is: MySQL is a fast, stable and true multi-user, multi-threaded SQL database server. SQL (Structured Query Language) is the most popular database query language in the world. The main goals of MySQL are speed, robustness and ease of use. The generated binaries are mysql-server, mysql-client, mysql-common, libmysqlclient12 and libmysqlclient12-dev. There is also a set of packages from the mysql-dfsg-4.1 for the next version branch that I do also maintain (and look for help for). The packages are currently quite stable and matured but never the less have quite complex scripts and it's a widely used package which should not be left alone when I'm on holidays or ill. Also there are licensing issues every couple of month with which you can tease the always helpful MySQL employees... *evilgrin* Although I'm happy for anybody who helps a but, I'm looking specifically for an official Debian Developer as a Co-Maintainer who is able to upload packages. bye, -christian- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Yes, that is not (yet) my case, but will hopefully be very soon: I have almost finished the Task&Skills part of my NM process now, and so i will only need as much time as the DAM needs. I am *much* more knowledgeable than one year and a half ago, when i first offered some help. I have not been able to help as of late since i don't have upload capability yet. Otherwise, feel free to tell me which tasks you need help with. bye, See you :-) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Until you are allowed to upload yourself, helping is still easy, except from license issues it's mostly the number of bugs that takes a lot of time and where I start to loose overview: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=mysql-dfsg http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=mysql-dfsg-4.1 You can answer any bug report you like. Even if you only close 1-2 bugs per week that would still be great. bye, -christian-

This would be great. If you register yourself in the package tracking system you get all the mysql related bug reports. Closing one bug per week is enough to make me happy, although I would not complain about more engagement :) If you like to prepare new upstream versions you can also do if you like. I'm currently setting up a subversion repository for the debian/ directory on alioth.debian.org to easy colaboratory maintainership. bye, -christian- P.S. Please register for both mysql-dfsg and mysql-dfsg-4.1! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hooray :-) > anyway, let me know once you have the svn repository set up, and if > there's something specific you'd like me to start with, or whether > i should just starting hacking at bts reports. Starting with the bug reports would be good... e.g. from time to time I have to close all unreproducible bugs that are older than 2 month and check if new bugs came in without me noticing them. Also forwarded upstream bugs that may be closed in the meantime have to be checked regulary. (BTW: I tag them "forwarded 12354 http://..."; so that I can jump there in the web browser) bye, -christian- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
