Help needed to maintain wordpress
[ Bcc debian-devel to make the offer both to new maintainers and experienced ones ] Hello, I would like to find someone willing to take over the maintenance of wordpress in Debian (the most popular software to run a blog). The package is in a relatively good shape but it needs active maintenance to keep up with new upstream releases and security updates. One of the immediate challenge that I won't have the time to tackle is that the Debian package has been providing translations in wordpress-l10n for a long time already, but upstream just rolled out a new "language pack" mechanism and we probably need to adapt debian/get-upstream-i18n to use this new mechanism. Some PHP programming skills are required for this task. I have also left a debian/TODO with some more changes that we should implement. I will gladly sponsor uploads for non-DD. Cheers, PS: Giuseppe Iuculano is marked as the main maintainer but at least for wordpress he's MIA. Giuseppe, do you intend to work again on wordpress or shall you be removed from the maintainer field ? PPS: I have just uploaded wordpress 3.7.1 but can't push to git.debian.org currently since it's down. I have pushed a copy to https://github.com/rhertzog/wordpress -- Raphaël Hertzog ◈ Debian Developer Discover the Debian Administrator's Handbook: → http://debian-handbook.info/get/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

This is a more detailed instruction for Loongson 3A users: http://mips64el.debian.net/debian/rootfs/README Know issues: 1. MIPS64r2 ISA is required, while we have made a agree to downgrade the requirement to mips3 in future. 2. The permission is of /usr/bin/crontab is not correct, so you need to: apt-get install cron --reinstall 3. some files in /var/cache/man are not correct, you need to: rm -rf /var/cache/man/* ; mandb PS: we have 8500+ packages built now.

Re: MIPS64EL rootfs available for use and test
Anybody can help to test whether the out current webkit workable? Maybe by install epiphany-browser and use it? All of my board/laptops are working as build nodes. If it work, can you reply to https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=124370 and http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=729572 ?

I tested it on our OCTEON boards. Seems to be working. I had to enable CONFIG_DEVTMPFS and CONFIG_DEVTMPFS_MOUNT in my kernel and edit /etc/inittab to put gettys on my serial ports, and set the root password. But after that, it works seemingly without a hitch. >>> >>> Great news, while wait... does OCTEON support little endian? >> >> >> Yes.

I don't know... afaik things like the CN5020 based boards like the Erlite-3 and CAM-0100 only do big, and afaik there is no (documented) way to jumper them differently. On OCTEON, the endianess is under software control, it is *not* a hardware strapping option. With a suitable bootloader, we still start the system in big endian mode, but if a little-endian ELF image is loaded, we note the endianness, and switch to little endian mode as control is passed to the program entry point. It has only really been validated on OCTEON II and OCTEON III devices (cn6xxx and cn7xxx). Certianly the CPU cores on the cn5020 are capable of little endian operation. The I/O blocks on the other hand have not been validated for little endian operation on that part. It is known that the bootbus (where the NOR boot flash is connected) has problems in little endian mode on cn5020, so you probably wouldn't be able to use that from Linux. Also the USB controller on cn5020 has not been adapted and validated for little endian use, so there would be work there. My presumption is that the Cavium Octeon devboards from Cavium themselves (available I believe, but not too cheap) can do both? As I said above, it is under software control, so any board should be able to do it (given the proper software).
