[Pkg-crosswire-devel] Questions about future packaging

[Дмитрий Ледков]

Hi again,

I have a few questions.

1) What revision control system are we going to use? git, bzr or svn?

   I personally have no experience with svn.

   I like bzr and git equally well.
	Bzr-buildpackage supports many workflows
	Git-buildpackage supports pristine-tar

   My votes are:
	bzr   +2
	git   +1
	svn   -10
	other 0

ps I can help setup bzr or git structure to manage our packages. And
provide guide/tutorial on how to use them for packaging.

2) CDBS

Packages I've looked at (libsword-dev and gnomesword) both use CDBS is
it OK if we continue using CDBS for all packages we manage?

3) Tarball inside tarball

What was the point? there is no gain size wise, but upstream checksums
are lost. Can we stop doing this? (looking previous two packages).

4) Shall we assign and prioritize our packaging activity? Who is going
to do what?

5) Since there a few of us from Ubuntu side, shall we make a launchpad
team as well? I know alioth is great and all...... =D

Let me know what you all think.

I will try to look into libsword-dev in next few days, since it's our
primary dependency.
