I think that joining the pkg-fonts-devel team mailing list is the first step to go, certainly. We are about a dozen of people who mostly maintain a few font packages. The package are not precisely "team-maintained" but more maintained by one of the individuals in the team, but the packages source is in the team's SVN, which allows for peer review and some kind of collaborative maintenance (and some take over in case the regular maintainer happens to be missing). We have 3 lists: -devel for discussion -bugs for bugs about font packages (we subscribe the packages PTS to the list) -commits for SVN commits To join, you can subscribe to http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-fonts-devel Of course, also, all requirements for the creation of Debian packages apply also to font packages. So, creating one requires that the relevant person learns about Debian packaging. Of course, other team members may help in that matter. > However, I am copying this reply to the debian-devel mailing > lists, where other developers, better versed than I on font issues, > can chime in.
