I have been meaning to bring this up at a weekly IRC meeting, but have not been made to do so because of family commitments. With the release of sarge coming up, I notice that PNet is still in the "New Packages being worked on" category - ie not officially part of Debian. http://www.debian.org/devel/wnpp/being_packaged It been in this state for almost 3 years. The last sign of activity I an see about it was over a year ago. http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=126967 For purely selfish reasons I would like to see PNet included in the up and coming release of Sarge. I am prepared to do whatever work is required to make the debian package acceptable for inclusion. I have ported / created about 50 debian packages of my own so far, so this shouldn't be too hard for me. The one thing that is holding me up is that I am not a "Debian Developer", and have no idea how to get a package included in Debian. From what I can tell, it takes a while to be accepted as a developer. Have anybody got hints / suggestions on how to move forward? -- Russell The colour is black, the material is leather, the seduction is beauty, the justification is honesty, the aim is ecstasy, the fantasy is death. -- Susan Sontag
