Bug#344459: RFA: txt2html -- Text to HTML converter



Package: wnpp
Severity: normal


IMVHO this package is in a pretty good shape, and I don't see any
particular tasks that really need to be done. However, for some reason
I'm not that fond of it and / or don't use it regularily anymore, so
as part of some restructuring on my side I'm willing to let this
package go and find a loving new maintainer for it.
NB: This package is quite easy to maintain and thus might be just the
right choice for any aspiring new maintainer trying to get his hands
wet.

If you have a sponsor (or don't need one) please just take over.
Otherwise I might be interested in sponsoring a new maintainer,
provided the changes a) show _no_ regressions and b) provide
substantial improvements (no, just putting your name on it and
changing to your packaging style of choice is _not_ substantial in my
eyes). Either way please follow the standard procedure as outlined on
<http://www.debian.org/devel/wnpp/> for taking over.
Until a new maintainer has been found I will continue to take care
just as before, of course...

Description: Text to HTML converter
 txt2html is a Perl program that converts plain text to HTML.
 .
 It supports headings, lists, simple character markup, and hyperlinking, and is
 highly customizable. It recognizes some of the apparent structure of the
 source document (mostly whitespace and typographic layout), and attempts to
 mark that structure explicitly using HTML.
 .
 The purpose for this tool is to provide an easier way of converting existing
 text documents to HTML format, giving something nicer than just whapping the
 text into a big PRE block. txt2html can also be used to aid in writing new
 HTML documents, but there are probably better ways of doing that.
 .
