Hi Bernhard,
The Salvage team would be interested in helping with choosewm, following
the Package Salvaging procedure outlined in the Developers Reference[1].
>From what I see, the package seems to meet the criteria for this
process, and I'd like to support keeping it maintained in Debian. As the
Salvage process suggests, here is a list of the criteria that I believe
apply:
- NMU
- Bugs filed against the package do not have answers from the
maintainer.
- There are QA issues with the package.
I realised you are upstream of this code but since your last upload was
14 years ago it makes sense to have this code somewhere in Git (=Salsa).
Emmanuel has set up a repository within the salvage-team space[2] to
assist you with this initial setup. If you decide not to accept the ITS,
this repository can easily be moved to another location, such as
debian/, or any place of your choosing. We hope this service helps make
the transition to using a Git repository on Salsa smoother and more
convenient for you.
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.
