hi Dominik, I intend to maintain this package. I think only the SVG icons, since you don't seem to need more (do you need the javascript code?) and I need the SVGs for freeplane 1.8. @mentors: Could you suggest a team where this could be maintained (where is the js-team mailing list?) Cheers and Best Regards, -- Felix Natter
hello Debian-js, I would like to package twemoji (SVGs for unicode emojis) [1], and I think debian-js is the right team for this. However, I consider packaging only the SVGs and not the javascript code, because that's all I need for the freeplane package, and the RFP author Dominik (CC:) did not reply to my query (see #878875). What do you think, is Debian-js the right place for this, and do you need the javascript code? [1] https://github.com/twitter/twemoji Cheers and Best Regards, -- Felix Natter
Hi Felix, Quoting Felix Natter (2020-08-08 10:41:53) You are most welcome to maintain twemoji in the JavaScript team and I agree that seems a good place to do it, given that upstream build framework seem tied to Node.js. Other options you might consider are the fonts team and DebianArt (if the latter is a team, not sure about that: Maybe ask Valessio Brito directly). When packaging it, then yes, please package it reusable for other projects as well - that's an important attitude of Debian packaging. This (from a quick look) indeed seems to mean include the javascript, not only SVGs. But maybe consult the fonts teams on that - they maintain several fonts where upstream ship Javascript stuff as well. Speaking of SVGs, are you sure this is the real source of those SVG files? It seems amchine-generated to me, and I suspect there is real concern as to freedom aspects of distributing only as provided here. Even if you choose to use the JavaScript team as platform for your package maintenance, I recommend that you discuss the issue of source of fonts with the font team, as there is collected quite some knowledge and experience in that team. Hmm, maybe the fonts team would be a better place after all. Not sure... Good luck with the project - seems a great resource to have in Debian! - Jonas
Jonas Smedegaard <jonas@jones.dk> writes: hi Jonas, hi Debian-js, Finally I got a response from twitter (Justine De Caires <jdecaires@twitter.com>): "The original sources are indeed the SVG files. When we update the package with new emojis, I'm given SVG files by the designers, so there aren't any AI files to be had anymore." Now that this is resolved, can someone add me to Debian-js [1] (I am part of Debian-java already), create a salsa repository for twemoji and maybe suggest a similar package? [1] I couldn't find a way to apply here: https://salsa.debian.org/groups/js-team/-/group_members I'll let you decide. Many Thanks and Best Regards, Felix -- Felix Natter
hello Debian developers, twemoji contains SVGs for twitter emojis as well as javascript code to generate this in web/node.js apps. Unfortunately, I cannot package all of twemoji, because it has a generated file without source: https://github.com/twitter/twemoji-parser/blob/master/src/lib/regex.js I contacted a twitter developer (2020) [1] and she said that it could take a while until they publish the relevant library. [1] Justine De Caires jdecaires@twitter.com It is not possible to have a mixture of main/non-free binary packages, so it not possible to put the SVGs in main, and debian-js/debian-fonts have expressed no interest in just a package with the SVGs. https://alioth-lists.debian.net/pipermail/pkg-javascript-devel/2020-October/045115.html I might still package this (the SVGs only) later if I get to upgrade freeplane>=1.8 (which is blocked by gradle). Cheers and Best Regards, -- Felix Natter
