Hi Advene[1] is a video annotation software (GPL), developed with python, Gtk and Gstreamer. It was present in older Debian releases [2], but got removed some years ago due to major migrations (python2->python3, Gtk2->Gtk3, Gstreamer0.10->Gstreamer1.0). Since then, the application has been updated and is now in good shape to be reintroduced into Debian. The updated Debian package[3], migrated from cdbs to dh_python, has been used/tested for at least 3 years (distributed through a private repository[4]). As per [5]/[6] a ITP bug has been filed: #1014535 It was previously maintained under the Multimedia Team umbrella, but the there seems to be no more interested dev there with time to sponsor this package there, and I was hinted that the Python team may be more appropriate. I am looking for help/sponsorship from the Python Team to help getting the package back in Debian. I am ready to be part of the Python Team (I have read the policy.rst and accept it) and do most of the work if needed, but I would welcome guidance wrt the current practices of python packages. Anyone interested? Happy hacking!
