[Availability]
The package gnome-shell-extension-tiling-assistant is already in Ubuntu universe.
The package gnome-shell-extension-tiling-assistant build for the architectures it is designed to work on.
It currently builds and works for architetcures: all
Link to package https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell-extension-tiling-assistant

[Rationale]
- The package gnome-shell-extension-tiling-assistant is required in Ubuntu main to provide quarter tiling to our default desktop. The plan is to work upstream to get the feature integrated but that's going to take several cycle and we believe that using an extension is going to help providing feedback to guide the design decisions.

- The package gnome-shell-extension-tiling-assistant would ideally be in Ubuntu main for Feb 23th but it's not realistic at this point, we would still like to request a feature freeze exception and include it this cycle though.

[Security]
- No CVEs/security issues in this software in the past

- no `suid` or `sgid` binaries
- no executables in `/sbin` and `/usr/sbin`
- Package does not install services, timers or recurring jobs
- Packages does not open privileged ports (ports < 1024)
- Packages does not contain extensions to security-sensitive software

[Quality assurance - function/usage]
- The package works well right after install

[Quality assurance - maintenance]
- The package is maintained well in Debian/Ubuntu/Upstream, it has no report in Debian/Ubuntu and no major issues upstream
  - Ubuntu https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell-extension-tiling-assistant/+bug
  - Debian https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=gnome-shell-extension-tiling-assistant
  - Upstream's bug tracker, https://github.com/Leleat/Tiling-Assistant/issues
- The package does not deal with exotic hardware we cannot support

[Quality assurance - testing]
- The package does not run a test at build time since there is no testing framework for gnome-shell extensions

- The package does not run an autopkgtest because testing gnome-shell behaviour changes isn't something we can really do in the autopkgtest infrastructure

- We will provide a manual testplan to cover the behaviour changes and features added by the extension

[Quality assurance - packaging]
- debian/watch is present and works
- debian/control defines a correct Maintainer
