Package: cardstories
Version: N/A
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Dear Debian maintainer,

On Sunday, May 01, 2011, I notified you of the beginning of a review process
concerning debconf templates for cardstories.

The debian-l10n-english contributors have now reviewed these templates,
and the proposed changes are attached to this bug report.

Please review the suggested changes, and if you have any
objections, let me know in the next 3 days.

However, please try to avoid uploading cardstories with these changes
right now.

The second phase of this process will begin on Sunday, May 22, 2011, when I will
coordinate updates to translations of debconf templates.

The existing translators will be notified of the changes: they will
receive an updated PO file for their language.

Simultaneously, a general call for new translations will be sent to
the debian-i18n mailing list.

Both these calls for translations will request updates to be sent as
individual bug reports. That will probably trigger a lot of bug
reports against your package, but these should be easier to deal with.

The call for translation updates and new translations will run until
about Sunday, June 12, 2011. Please avoid uploading a package with fixed or 
changed
debconf templates and/or translation updates in the meantime. Of
course, other changes are safe.

Please note that this is an approximative delay, which depends on my
own availability to process this work and is influenced by the fact
that I simultaneously work on many packages.

Around Monday, June 13, 2011, I will contact you again and will send a final 
patch
summarizing all the updates (changes to debconf templates,
updates to debconf translations and new debconf translations).

Again, thanks for your attention and cooperation.

+Description: multiplayer online card guessing game
+ This package provides a server for a networked guessing game using
+ picture cards. One player (the "author") creates the game by choosing
+ a card, picking a word or a sentence to describe it, and sending out
+ invitations to others to participate.
+ .
+ Each of these players receives seven cards and has to pick
+ one that best matches the author's description.
+ .
  Once enough players have chosen a card, the author displays all chosen
  cards and the players try to figure out which one is the author's.
- The author wins if at least one of the players guesses right, but not all
- of them do. The winners are the author and the players who guessed right. 
- If the author loses, all the other players win. 
+ .
+ If at least one but not all of them guesses correctly, the author
+ wins, along with the players who guessed correctly. Otherwise, the
+ guessers all win.
