No problem at all, please continue it privately. >> There is no Alioth project and I was thinking about creating one named >> 'pkg-bacula'. I clearly remember I had looked for such a project before sending my last email and found none, now that I was asking for it I found out that one has existed since 2006-05-10. I cc:ed the other three members: what is your status in this project? John already demoted himself from 'Admin' to 'Developer', I guess he wants to come back in the future ;-), what about Christoph and Turbo? I am now part of this project, the next thing I will ask for is two mailing lists: read-only -commits and -devel, the latter to be used as Maintainers: in debian/control. And I will also ask for a Git repository, which will be the succession of John's repository at <http://git.debian.org/?p=users/jgoerzen/bacula>. Given that it must be editable by every one in the project, it should be created with `umaks 002`, as explained at: <http://wiki.debian.org/Alioth/Git#Separate_project>. >> Maybe I will ask on debian-devel@ and then decide about that. >> Anyway, if no one will complain in three days, I will ask for such a new >> Alioth project. > > Ok, let's use Alioth > (though I'd prefer some repo hosted somewhere or whatever) Anything else than Alioth is a no-op for me, sorry, as I do not see the point in keeping Debian work on a non-Debian resource. And if Alioth misses something that other resources have, please file bugs into the Alioth bug tracker ;-) On Mon, 11 Apr 2011 15:38:29 +0200, Gerfried Fuchs wrote: > * Bernd Holzinger <i...@smart-network-systems.de> [2011-04-11 14:55:27 CEST]: >> Any plans to update the bacula packages to version 5.0.3 for squeeze? > > A backport of 5.0.3 can only be produced if the bacula version in > testing got updated to said version.

FWIW, I started to use Bacula on production systems, i.e. on squeeze, thus if none of the other upcoming maintainers will do, I will for sure provide backports for squeeze, since I need them anyway.
