• FLTK ecosystem team/namespace proposal

    From Aaron M. Ucko@21:1/5 to All on Thu Jul 17 09:50:02 2025
    Greetings.

    I am thinking of (finally) establishing a packaging team and associated
    Salsa namespace for FLTK proper and any reverse dependencies that care
    to join it, particularly those that aren't already team-maintained. (As
    such, I'm explicitly addressing only maintainers of individually
    maintained reverse dependencies.) On the policy front, I'm inclined to
    fork the Debian-Med policy[1] on grounds of familiarity, but open to alternatives. However, I plan to stay *neutral* on patch-system usage
    -- I generally see them as excess formality/ceremony when already using
    version control, but I know they remain broadly popular, so individual
    packages are welcome to go either way as far as I'm concerned.

    Please let me know if you'd like to join and if you have any notable
    policy preferences. (NB: I haven't followed -devel in ages, so please
    keep me copied even when replying to the list.)

    FWIW, I am at DebConf if anyone wants to meet in person. I suspect the
    timing is too tight to try to schedule a group meetup, but please feel
    free to find me for an individual chat if you'd like.

    Great, thanks! I've created https://salsa.debian.org/fltk-team and https://tracker.debian.org/teams/fltk/ (teams+fltk@tracker.debian.org)
    and added you to both; please feel free to take it from there at your convenience.
