[opensuse-factory] python-ipaddr
I've been preparing a package of python-ipaddr in OBS[0] The library is a dependency of another project I'm trying to package, and since it's a general enough library I thought I might submit it. It's very useful when working extensively with IP addresses, since it provides lots of stuff python's stdlib doesn't. I tried to follow all the guidelines for python packaging, I tried the package in my own 11.4 and it works Ok. The only thing that makes me doubt is the requirement for a CLA[1] in order to submit patches upstream. How does the community deal with this? If the CLA is no issue, I'll try to submit the package to factory before the next milestone.

The relevant part to me is here: "The Google CLA is based on Apache's. Note that unlike some projects (notably GNU projects), we do not require a transfer of copyright. You still own the patch. " So, while I am not a lawyer, from the perspective of openSUSE, it is up to you to work out upstreaming the patches, but it looks pretty safe to me.

Well, I've submitted, and I got some feedback. Though the latest feedback puzzles me. I got this SR[0] superseded without comment. What does that mean?

The page says (in the headline): Request #84270 (superseded by request #84380) "superseded" means the SR was replaced by a new SR. https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/84380 (the new request) was sent by saschape, after he changed some things in the devel:languages:python python-ipaddr package. See https://build.opensuse.org/package/revisions?package=python-ipaddr&project=devel%3Alanguages%3Apython for details about his changes. Regards, Christian Boltz --
Wieso ich, ich habe 1,5 Mbit anbindung, ständig. Du? Oder dein Rechner? :-) Was meinst du wie ich nach 1,500,000 Bit aussehe, glaubst du, dann könnte ich noch schreiben, geschweige denn programmieren?

Oh.. thanks... I'm a bit new about this and I couldn't find any docs on the meanings of stuff. I guess I'm learning ;-) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
