Hi everyone. |
2 |
I hope to find all of you well with that mail and I ask to forgive me if it does not scrictly |
3 |
follows mailing-list’s rules. |
4 |
As title said, I’d like to propose a new category, in that PR [1], for these packages |
5 |
that are not related to net-print, for eg: drivers. As pointed out by Sam, I’d have to |
6 |
ask here before anything else but, saying that, I’ve noted that a discussion for |
7 |
media-print was already made a year ago [2] and there is a pending bug [3] against it. |
8 |
I have no problem on using my spare time to work under it, I only ask 2 things: |
9 |
1. your permission to do that (primarily from printing team and these directly related |
10 |
to making new categories) and |
11 |
2. point out which packages should have to be moved to new category/ies(?) for you. |
12 |
|
13 |
Looking at packages seems there’s not any package strictly related to net (tell me if |
14 |
You think some of these should remains to it). As said on point 2 also I’d like to ask if |
15 |
You think there should be more that one new category (for eg print-drv for drivers and |
16 |
media-print for these things more common-used like cups). |

Have a nice day everyone, |
