Please elaborate
Hi @stappersg
It's just a note to ourself to keep an update on trying to add Hurl to official Debian repo.
We've 0 experience in this domain and struggle a bit to know where to start. We've send a first mail to [email protected], as described in https://wiki.debian.org/DebianMentorsFaq#:~:text=File%20an%20ITP%20(intent%20to%20package)%20bug%20using%20reportbug to make a official request to propose Hurl. Do you think you can help us ? Or share any experience/tips to guide us ? Thanks,
Jc

OK, that is the correct email address for reporting an "bug".
Meanwhile should there be bug report number. What is it?
Do you think you can help us ?
I doing so by asking good questions.
Or share any experience/tips to guide us ?
Work in progress, currently low priority ...
Hi @stappersg, here is the bug report number https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1001779.
Hi @stappersg, we probably need some help here...
Like @jcamiel said it's our first experience attempting to create a Debian package, so i wonder if we have forgotten something to move it forward since our bug report seems to be on hold for almost 3 months ?
Thks for your help :)

No, nothing is on hold. An request for packaging is a request for packaging.
Thks for your help :)
Expressing expectations is fine, insisting on ones own expectation doesn't help.
FWIW, I only partly argee with "somebody else should do it", thing I will do is sponsoring uploads to Debian.
On expressing expectations: I love to see messages like
At $URL is hurl dependency foo packaged. What is, beside review time, needed to get it uploaded to Debian?
