Dear friends,
Together with a bunch of people during debcamp, we decided to package
homeassistant. This is a huge task, with hundreds of dependencies. Since
there's too many, we've been told to no Cc: debian-devel@l.d.o when
filing the ITPs, and instead write a summary (as per developper's ref).
Well, we wont write such a summary, but everyone can follow our progress
on this wiki page, which fills the same purpose:
https://wiki.debian.org/Python/HomeAssistant
As you may see, there are 600+ packages to do. Since we're a lot of
people on the task, we believe it can be done.
I've written 13 packages myself, and uploaded most already. Edward Betts
beated me by a very much higher numbers! billchenchina1 and omnidapps
already wrote many packages waiting in the NEW queue too.
Note that we decided to push these packages to a separate team, as we
don't really see drivers for heaters or air cond systems as very useful
for any other things than homeassistant. Things that do make sense for a
more general purpose will be pushed to the Python team as we see fit.
Cheers,
Thomas Goirand (zigo)
