I have released the package, almost as you left it. Technically the "deadline" of November 5th could be postponed by simply posting to that bugreport, but no need for that when you have fixed the issue, only complicated by my stubborn approach to releasing the fix. > > What I prefer is to keep relatively formal conversations in bugreports, > > and more casual chatter on matrix/irc.

But I can check Matrix if IRC is an issue. I am old enough to use irc and be sceptical about other platforms, but young (or just stupid?) to find irc clunky to manage. I self-holst mail and other services (including a matrix node) but have stopped running an irc proxy, now relying on matrix.org gateways - and unfortunately such gateway is blocked by Libera: https://libera.chat/guides/matrix So I cannot easily join you at Libera, but you need not mess with Matrix as I hang out on OFTC as well (via a Matrix bridge). Since I expect most of out chatter about Debian packaging rather that mptcpd project, I suggest we just hang out at my favorite spot used for misc. smaller projects I am involved in: Please join channel #tinker at OFTC. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ * Sponsorship: https://ko-fi.com/drjones [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
