One way to do that would be to add "ltsp" to the edubuntu packageset (edubuntu did use ltsp a lot), and another would be that I get listed as a per-package uploader for both ltsp and epoptes. </blockquote> Given that Edubuntu is now a deprecated flavor that is no longer supported, I do not want to alter the deprecated flavor packageset. The second option - PPU rights for your user for both ltsp and epoptes - is a more viable option. Forgive my detailed description here, but it will also help for everyone to read my mindset and interpretation RE: the existing dictated policy and how it applies to you. ------ If you don't want to read my justification on this matter, please skip to the end of the message. For policy information and noting on the record, we have a process for DDs to apply for upload privileges [1]. Using this as a baseline, my interpretation of this expands to include DMs in Debian in the process, but in a way that does not block you simply because you are DM on the packages and not a DD. These justifications and interpretations of DD vs. DM are as follows: 1. DDs have upload privileges in Debian as a whole with limited restriction on what package they can upload to. (this would be something akin to Ubuntu Core Dev in Ubuntu) 2. DMs have upload privileges in Debian to specific packages or sets of packages and need sponsoring for other package uploads (roughly equivalent to PPU rights in Ubuntu) Under the above justifications, PPU application requests for DMs who already have upload access to upload the requested packages in Debian can be processed in this category. As such, this requires only one DMB member to approve this. As such... --- I am approving your request for Per Package Upload rights for ltsp and epoptes in Ubuntu and will shortly get this processed. The justification for this approval is as follows: 1. You have an understanding already of Ubuntu policies regarding policies, uploads, freezes, etc. due to Edubuntu. 2. Your request falls under my second justification/interpretation of the Debian DD/DM application process as stated above. Congratulations on the approval of your PPU rights for these packages!
