[munin-users] Bug#535691: RFH: munin packaging help

[Holger L. <ho...@la...>]

package: wnpp
x-debbugs-cc: mun...@li..., mun...@li...

Hi,

the munin package could need some more love:

- currently there are 35 open bugs, some with patches, some need to go
  upstream, etc. - and there is a constant flow of new bugs coming, see
  see http://people.debian.org/~glandium/bts/m/munin.png
- the Debian package has 55 patches applied. Few are Debian specific, many
  have been applied upstream in the 1.3 branch, but some not. Unfortunatly,
  we dont have an overview about which patch is in which category...
- munin 1.3 is about to from alpha to beta status and 1.4 might even be 
  released in time for squeeze. It would be awesome to upload 1.3 to  
  experimental soon, to get more testing.
- while uploaders lists five people, most work in the last year has been done
  by two and most work in the last half year has been done by one person...

If you are interested in helping out, no matter whether you are a DD, DM or 
not, please contact me or just start working:

- BTS cleanup
- patch renaming (1xx_* = debian-specific, 2xx_* = applied in 1.3, etc)
- packaging 1.3


Thanks,
	Holger
