Hi,
I'm interested in salvaging the package ufo2otf, in accordance with the
Package Salvaging procedure outlined in the Developers Reference[1].
This package meets the criteria for this process, and I would love to
assist in preserving and maintaining it. As the Salvage process
suggests, here is a list of the criteria that apply, in my opinion:
- NMUs (more than one NMU in a row).
- Bugs filed against the package do not have answers from the
maintainer.
- There are QA issues with the package.
I believe the package would be a great addition either to the Fonts team
or the Python team, I'm actually not very sure which team might fit
better but for the moment decided for the Fonts team and I took the
liberty to create the Salsa repository here[2]. (Comments from Python
team are welcome - I'm fine with moving there.) If you choose not to
accept the ITS, I'd be more than happy to help you move it to another
location, such as debian/, or wherever you prefer. My goal is to make it
as easy as possible for you to join the team. I'd also be delighted to
assist in adding you as a team member if you could share your Salsa
login.
This package was highlighted in the Bug of the Day[3] initiative, which
aims to introduce newcomers to manageable tasks and guide them through
the workflow to solve them. The focus of this initiative is on migrating
packages to Salsa, as it's a great way to help newcomers become familiar
with a consistent Git-based workflow.
Kind regards
Andreas.
