Hello,
as discussed on debian-project and debian-mentors [1], the scope of
debian-mentors@lists.d.o was broadened to explicitely include questions
regarding Debian infrastructure projects.
The DebianMentorsFaq already has been updated accordingly [2, 3]
Hey Wookey,
In general, I think that we should aim for webapps being accessible (and
usable) out-of-the-box after installation while still allowing later
customization by admins.

Hi,
During MiniDebConf in Hamburg, I had an interesting conversation about
the question of how we can attract more people to contribute to Debian
infrastructure projects. There seems to be some consensus that such
infrastructure projects are the ones in Debian that most badly need
more contributor

Hello,
in the cryptsetup init and cryptdists_{start|stop} scripts we use some
shell magic with set -e, while read ... done and input/output

At preparing zope2.11.3 packages, I found several python (test-)modules
that do have python2.5/python2.6 code. This code is mostly for checking
python2.5/python2.6 support, and thus isn't relevant for the
functionality of zope itself.
Zope2.11.3 still requires python2.4, so when the packag

Hello,
I intend to maintain libmimelib1 as a seperate source package now that
kdepim 3.5.9 has been removed from debian/unstable.
I finally do have a working package, but before I upload it to
debian/unstable, I'd like somebody else to take a look at it.
In particular, I'm unsure about the follo
Hello,
I plan to package libmimelib 1.1.2 for debian/unstable. Until now this
has been built/provided by kdepim from kde3, but as part of the kde4
transition kdepim3 has been removed from debian/unstable. Still lurker
depends on libmimelib1c2a, and migrating to libmimelib4 is not an option
as it w
hello,
for lurker i need to set the lurker system group password in postinst.
unfortunately there seems to be no way for changing group passwords in
batch mode.
for system user passwords 'chpasswd' exists, but i cannot find an
equivalent for system group passwords.
would it be generally useful?
