Bug#1117841: ITS: piccolo

[Andreas Tille]

Source: piccolo
Version: 1.2-1.1
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: Javier Fernández-Sanguino Peña <jfs at debian.org>, Debian Java Maintainers <pkg-java-maintainers at lists.alioth.debian.org>, 1115223 at bugs.debian.org, Package Salvaging Team <team+salvage at tracker.debian.org>

Hi Javier,
 
I would be interested in helping with piccolo, following the Package
Salvaging procedure outlined in the Developers Reference[1]. From what I
see, the package seems to meet the criteria for this process, and I'd
like to support keeping it maintained in Debian. As the Salvage process
suggests, here is a list of the criteria that I believe apply:
 
  - NMU
  - Bugs filed against the package do not have answers from the
    maintainer.
  - There are QA issues with the package.
 
I believe the package would be a great addition to the Java team, and I
took the liberty to create the Salsa repository here[2]. If you choose
not to accept the ITS, I'd be more than happy to help you move it to
another location, such as debian/, or wherever you prefer. My goal is to
make it as easy as possible for you to join the team. I'd also be
delighted to assist in adding you as a team member if you could share
your Salsa login.
 
 
This package was highlighted in the Bug of the Day[3] initiative, which
aims to introduce newcomers to manageable tasks and guide them through
the workflow to solve them. The focus of this initiative is on migrating
packages to Salsa, as it's a great way to help newcomers become familiar
with a consistent Git-based workflow.
 
Kind regards
    Andreas.
