thwildau-telematics:0.1.0

[C4mperpr0]

I am submitting

• a new package
• an update for a package

Description: This package is a full multilingual template to write a thesis or similar other documents in an academic fashion. It's based on an internal LaTeX template and aims to fulfill all current regulations present at the TH-Wildau.

I have read and followed the submission guidelines and, in particular, I

• selected a name that isn't the most obvious or canonical name for what the package does
• added a typst.toml file with all required keys
• added a README.md with documentation for my package
• have chosen a license and added a LICENSE file or linked one in my README.md
• tested my package locally on my system and it worked
• excluded PDFs or README images, if any, but not the LICENSE

• ensured that my package is licensed such that users can use and distribute the contents of its template directory without restriction, after modifying them through normal use.

Thank you for submitting this package.

If this isn't an official package of the school, could you pick another name please? It should be distinctive enough so that another package with the same purpose can be published without one of the two having an unfair advantage, and it should be clear from the name that it is community-built and not officially endorsed by the school. See our naming rules.

If you want to make this an official template, to keep the current name, that's also an option. In that case a member of the school staff should send an email to hello@typst.app stating that they officially endorse your package. In practice it means that they will accept submission of works built using it, and ideally promote it and guarantee that it will be maintained in the long term.

After a lot of back and forth with different parts of my hochschule, we decided to make it a template for my field of study instead of the entire hochschule. Would thwildau-telematics-thesis be a fitting name for this? Or maybe keep it shorter with thwildau-telematics?
When renaming, should I open a new merge request with that name or would it be fine to rename this one?

[C4mperpr0]

I have now rebranded everything and a member of staff will reach out to you shortly.

[C4mperpr0]

Thank you for the feedback, I will fix the type. Regarding the "officialness" and usage of the logo, I am already trying to get in touch with the responsible branch of my hochschule and would like to submit this as an official package. I will have them get in touch you and hope it is not too time critical here, since it might still take another few days or weeks.
Edit: While waiting, is it fine to leave this merge request as is or should I convert it to a draft? Thank you for looking into my contribution so far!

[elegaanz]

We can keep this PR open while we wait for their reply. :)

I am not sure why the bot remove the waiting-on-validation label, maybe because I pushed a bug-fix. In any case, I am still waiting on permission from my Hochschule, but it is going forward!

[elegaanz]

Yeah the bot is a bit dumb and overwrites any label that is not "new" or "update" every time it runs (so on every push), don't worry about it.

Since this package is built for the telematics class, I'm not sure the new name really fits our guidelines either. If the head teacher agrees to making this template official, they can send the verification email themselves. Otherwise I will ask you to pick another name. We can discuss it here before changing again, if you want to be sure to chose something that will fit our guidelines.

One of the professors responsible for this told me that they send you an email today, verifying my work. The template idea has been discussed with multiple of my profs and all of them like idea and agree with uploading it to the typst universe as an template for my class/field of study specifically. They wouldve even supported me to make it an official template for the whole institution, especially since there is none yet and nothing else is planned, but it would also take a while to get the responsible people involved and have them verify me, so we opted for the faster route here.

[elegaanz]

Okay, I'll wait for the email and merge then :)
