This should probably be named sdview, as per
https://perl-team.pages.debian.net/policy.html#Package_Naming_Policy

I've also thought about packing it after reading about it :)

Great, looking at it now. (Side note: the «Create an account on Salsa»
link points to https://signup.salsa.debian.org/, which as far as I can

to take me to the right place.)

Nice catch, thanks. I've updated the link in the wiki.

Once you have a salsa account please tell us your username so we can
add you to the perl team there.

Doppler åpnet øynene og så hele fargespekteret for første gang på mange
måneder. Verden hadde farge. Den var rød, den var grønn. Den var roggbif.
