[pkg-php-pear] Packaging php-xml-serializer inside the PEAR packaging team

[Thomas Goirand]

Hi Federico,

Last time, before Squeeze, I have NMU a patch so that php-xml-serializer
could work correctly with php 5.3. Now, as Wheezy is approaching, I
haven't seen any new upload from you. Also, the package is still using
CDBS and dpatch, when it should in fact switch to source format 3.0,
quilt, and pkg-php-tools. Last, there's currently version 0.20.2
upstream, which needs to be packaged as well. If you don't intend to do
what's necessary, I'll NMU, so I'd like to know.

So I wonder: do you still want to maintain php-xml-serializer? If so,
would you agree to use Git and work inside the PEAR packaging team? It'd
be great if your other PEAR packages, php-net-sieve and
php-html-template-it, were also team maintained.

Please let everyone know,
Cheers,

Thomas Goirand (zigo)
