Bug#1099607: ITS: libtemplate-plugin-cycle-perl

[Andreas Tille]

Source: libtemplate-plugin-cycle-perl
Version: 1.06-1.1
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: 1007294 at bugs.debian.org, Debian Perl Group <pkg-perl-maintainers at lists.alioth.debian.org>, Jonas Genannt <jonas.genannt at capi2name.de>, Package Salvaging Team <team+salvage at tracker.debian.org>

Hi Jonas,

A personal note in advance: It must be a sign to stumble upon a package
of yours quite close before CLT.  I'd be happy to see you there again
after many years.  And now to the templated mail about your package ...

I'm interested in salvaging your package libtemplate-plugin-cycle-perl,
in accordance with the Package Salvaging procedure outlined in the
Developers Reference[1].  Your package meets the criteria for this
process, and I would love to assist in preserving and maintaining it. As
the Salvage process suggests, here is a list of the criteria that apply,
in my opinion:

  - Only single upload of yours in 2011
  - Simply QA bug "3.0 source format" with no answer from you
  - There are QA issues with the package.

I believe your package would be a great addition to the Perl group, 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.

Your 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 familiarize newcomers with a
consistent Git-based workflow.

Kind regards and hopefully see you
    Andreas.
