Howe, Helen Nissenbaum & Mushon Zer-Aviv * URL : https://adnauseam.io * License : GPL-3+ Programming Lang: JavaScript Description : firefox extension that blocks ad and simulates clicks on each blocked ad AdNauseam is a lightweight browser extension that blends software tool and artware intervention to fight back against tracking by advertising networks. AdNauseam works like an ad-blocker (it is built atop uBlock-Origin) to silently simulate clicks on each blocked ad, confusing trackers as to one's real interests. At the same time, AdNauseam serves as a means of amplifying users' discontent with advertising networks that disregard privacy and facilitate bulk surveillance agendas. I thought of "adnauseam" for the source package and "xul-ext-adnauseam" for the binary package. I intend to package this by taking inspiration from the ublock-origin package and I'll need a sponsor. signature.asc Description: PGP signature

This position means that people will choose to use a completly non-free service rather than the service debian provides. OTOH I think the problem is not that "we don't have github workflow" but "every maintainer invents their own workflow". We have very strict policy on what goes into the binary packages. Meanwhile there is no effective policy how the source should be structured in git. We need to question if not having package sources in git is still useful option - or even if source package counts a preferred form for modification. At least "apt-get source" tells me every how I should probably use git instead... Riku

Bug#853955: ITP: python-fusepy -- simple Python interface to FUSE
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Sascha Steinbiss * Package name: python-fusepy Version : 2.0.4 Upstream Author : Terence Honles , Giorgos Verigakis * URL : https://github.com/terencehonles/fusepy * License : ISC Programming Lang: Python Description : simple Python interface to FUSE fusepy is a Python module that provides a simple interface to FUSE and MacFUSE. It's just one file and is implemented using ctypes. Due to a name clash with the existing API-incompatible python-fuse package, the importable module name for fusepy in Debian will be 'fusepy' instead of upstream's 'fuse'. This is being packaged as a dependency of a component of GRR, an incident response framework.

The problem isn't the lack of agreement on git workflow. The world in
general doesn't have agreement on git workflow, but still manages to
have a fairly-uniform interface to external contributors. Well, two
"skins" if you will over the same contributors workflow: 1. git clone
something 2. make your changes as git commits that seem to make sense
3(a) git-format-patch && git-send-email or 3(b) git push and press the
"request pull" button in some web UI.
The problems are:
1. There is^W was (in general, and in practice in many if not most
cases) nothing you can git clone, to get the source of a Debian
package.
2. There is no formal and established mechanism for offering your
contribution. (No, sending the output of `git-request-pull' to
the BTS is not a "formal and established mechanism.)
dgit solves the first problem. Something like a gitlab.d.o could
solve the second.

I agree and this is why I wrote dgit. Please try it out.

I agree.
> At least "apt-get source" tells me every how

apt-get source's suggestion to use the vcs-git repository is (in
general, and in practice in many if not most cases) a lie.
The vcs-git repository:
* May be out of date compared to the archive
* Might contain an arbtrarily weird git tree or git history
* Usually contains a patches-unapplied tree which is unsuitable
unless you are a Debian expert (see my posts on this passim)

Bug#853982: ITP: libconfig-mvp-slicer-perl -- Extract embedded plugin config from parent config
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: =?utf-8?q?Carn=C3=AB_Draug?= * Package name: libconfig-mvp-slicer-perl Version : 0.302 Upstream Author : Randy Stauner * URL : https://metacpan.org/release/Config-MVP-Slicer * License : Artistic or GPL-1+ Programming Lang: Perl Description : Extract embedded plugin config from parent config Config::MVP::Slicer can be used to extract embedded configurations for other plugins out of larger (parent) configurations. An example where this can be useful is plugin bundles (see Config::MVP::Assembler::WithBundles). A bundle loads other plugins with a default configuration that works most of the time, but sometimes you wish you could customize the configuration for one of those plugins without having to remove the plugin from the bundle and re-specify it separately.

This strikes me as a little odd, though. So if the company that sells the "closed shell" goes bust, would that turn the remaining core into free software for you? Or, to put it differently, is an orphaned project with no maintainer to accept patches preferable to a project with an active maintainer who rejects some useful patches (because he wants to sell them), but accepts others?
