finally subscribed to the mailing list ;)
@Will: hope my message got to you, but I never received any reply... The most important question I had there is what the main tasks are when being a maintainer of a package in KDE.Community, other than providing the (newest) version as rpms...

PS: I'm currently changing my packages' layout in order to prepare for submission to KDE:Community if you're still interested
Hi Nico I'm afraid your message didn't reach me until now. Maintaining a package in Community is much the same as anywhere else but you have direct access to the package instead of going via submitrequest. * Be a quality packager, fix problems in your packages reported by rpmlint * Keep your packages up to date ** Monitor upstream for security problems or critical bug fixes ** Write good .changes entries * Respond to bug reports concerning your packages * Communicate if you are no longer able to maintain a package, don't just disappear That's not too heavy, is it?
