Package: devscripts
Version: 2.10.61
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
I have written small release-info scripts (debian-release-info,
ubuntu-release-info) for querying information about the distributions'
releases. For example you can query the codename for the latest stable release
(or latest development release) of the corresponding distribution. You can do
your queries based on dates.
For example debchange could rely on these scripts instead of hardcoding the
releases.
I filed an ITP [1] and uploaded the release-info package to the archive, but
the ftp-master rejected it asking me to integrate it into devscripts.
You can rewrite the scripts in Perl if you dislike Python. I am not experienced
enough in Perl to do it by myself.
I am willing to join the devscripts team and maintain these scripts in the team.
