Overview

Comparing ourselves to our coopetitors is a necessary task to know where we are at and decide where we could get better.

Comparison

Package proposal for MIR

We should categorize the missing ones in three categories.

  • agreed: means that we both agreed that we should pull them in supported list and will work on a MIR for Hardy
  • Rejected: agreed during UDS that it should not be pulled in main

Agreed

The following is a table of packages for which we now need to write a MainInclusionReport (MIR) following the MainInclusionProcess.

Status should be one of :

  • Assigned
  • In Progress
  • Completed
  • Accepted

bacula

ChuckShort

Working on fixing packaging

the package will pull in an awesome amount of (b)deps from universe, it's buggy, maintainer in debian doesn't respond to bugs very often. Upstream comes with security problems by default. No MIR filed. Please see [http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=446809]
