AFAICS this is not forbidden by the policy so if that's your wish, I
don't mind.

i don't find grr a pretty good name, but if upstream wishes so,
so be it. i'd keep the existing name, but i'll leave this up to you,
i'd like to maintain rssreader, and you do rsskit... but try to do it you...

please go ahead, add yourself to uploaders: and be a co-maintainer,
i can need any help i can get, there's alot to do.

Thank you very much for your trust, but I'm not so confident in my
skills.  I will try to do my best and let's hope that I won't spoil
the package.

i'll help where i can, hubert says:
"Sounds good. If he wants to look at how to package frameworks, you can tell
him to look at the packaging of pantomime1.2, or popplerkit.framework."

please can you package rsskit? and if it's the same sourcetarball,
generate both packages!

Yes, RSSKit is in the upstream tarball, so we have to generate two
binary packages.  It'll be used by PlopFolio as well.

ah good, thank you!

if it's in the uberlarge etoile tree, let me give you some work/url
i did: http://io.debian.net/~tar/debian/etoile/ ... the checkout
should be updated and also dictionaryreader.app be built....

It is seperate from Etoile, I think, but thanks for the link.

i'll do etoile/dictionaryreader asap as gnustep is available in sid..

i'll be busy with updating all the packages
and improving them, including some new itp's and emacs.app

Great, I know about your new ITPs, but I suggest not to put any effort
on emacs.app.  I hardly recall the discussion on emacs-devel@gnu.org,
but I think that once Emacs 22 is released, the branch that Adrian
Robert is working on will be merged to the trunk and Romain Francoise
will package emacs-snapshot (as he does weekly since more than a
year), providing an alternative for the gnustep flavour.  If
everything is going well (fingers crossed), it will be official part
of Emacs 23; that's the intention of RMS as well.  I know you've put a
lot of effort in this package, but it was rejected once by the
ftpmasters and is likely to be rejected again if it is done in a
similar way.

the reason it got rejected was only that: it would have used 25 mb x 11 architectures, i fixed this shortly after, and new emacs.app release was done, gnustep also but now i wait for it be updated, and adrian also did great improvements on io.debian.net:
http://io.debian.net/~tar/debian/emacs/
i will try this again, since it's an important thing! very usable too, if you want screenshots:

from the old days when it was not on gnustep yet:
