  I packaged a requested software (see #120912), plus a related one, put
  both on  http://glou.net/~thomas/debian/ with  full source,  posted to
  debian-mentors, put my  name and description for both  packages on the
  sponsorship program web page, and ... got _absolutely_ no answer.

  Now, my question is : are  these packages totally unuseful to Debian ?
  And, if  so, should  I go  on searching  wnpp for  something hopefully
  useful,  package it  again, and  get the  same result,  no sponsor  or
  advocate ?
