<> ||<>|| == General == Packaging new software is a valuable task, but sometimes not trivial. Consider the following when you attempt to package new software: * You'll be the maintainer. You'll be responsible for the new software. You'll liaise with the upstream developers and take care of all the bugs. * The best maintainer for a package is somebody who has a special interest in the software. * You'll make a lot of users happy. == Resources == * Review the list of [[https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bugs?field.tag=needs-packaging|Packages requested by others]] and in concordance with the points above, assign the bug to yourself. * [[UbuntuDevelopment/NewPackages|Policy for inclusion of new packages]] * [[PackagingGuide/Basic|How to package from scratch]]. ---- Go back to '''[[MOTU/TODO]]'''.<
