Hi folks,
I've recently been
fiddling with the Quickflickr package
, trying to update it to work with an API change made by Flickr. I've managed to get a version up and running (to some extent), so now I've reached the next question; how to push updates into the repository?
I have contacted the
original maintainer
, and he is amenable to adding me to the maintainer list. Which now leads to an interesting question; exactly how does one add people to the maintainer list of a package in the extras repository? I've never done it myself; Marko has been away from Maemo for some time as well, and doesn't recall the process. I've looked through the wikis, and although the way to request to be added as a maintainer is well-documented, I can't find documentation anywhere on exactly how to
grant
maintainership.
I could use a clue here... Thanks!
