Hi

I am about to work a little bit with the lirc repository and i just
want to ask if i can change the maintainer to this list and add Amaya
and myself to Uploaders?

I would also ask for a common format of debian/changelog, and would
suggest the same format i use in the VDR and DVB Project, see [1] for
an example. Such an entry in the changelog would look like this:

lirc (0.7.1pre2-7) unstable; urgency=3Dlow

  * Not yet released

  * Thomas Schmidt <tschmidt@debian.org>
    - Build-Conflict: automake1.{4,6,7}, because these versions will
      generate broken makefiles
    - Build-Depend: automake1.8
    - Now finally close (Closes: #301590), which should have been closed=20
      in -5 allready. (In the meantime #301570 was reopened manually=20
      again.)

 -- Debian Lirc Maintainers <pkg-lirc-maint@lists.alioth.debian.org>  Sat, =

The "Not yet released" entry should indicate if someone should start a
new revision or if he can add his changes to this revision. (Of course
this entry should be removed before uploading a new package.)

What do you think about this suggestion?
