package sponsorship request
Hi everybody,
I am having a hard time getting my package, libsvm, sponsored:
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/l/libsvm/libsvm_2.84.0-2.dsc
Michael Koch believes it is inappropriate for me to be changing
AUTHORS and THANKS. Actually, I made those up quite some time ago to
allow for automake to be used in packaging (optionally). But, he
hates it and will not sponsor the package as a result for weeks.
Also, I think he has decided that now is the right time for me to
switch patch maintanance systems from what I gather but I am not sure
because the requirements seem to be changing. Personally, I am not
willing to change it anymore, but there is a bug that should be closed
and another I would like to get started on so I was wondering if there
is anybody else on the Debian Science team that is willing to take the
risk of uploading this package. Also, I am starting a new job and
have no time to devote to this packge anymore but realize it is very
popular so hope somebody uploads it.
Best regards,
-r.
