RFS: libconfig-grammar-perl



Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "libconfig-grammar-perl".

* Package name    : libconfig-grammar-perl
  Version         : 1.10-1
  Upstream Author : David Schweikert <david@schweikert.ch> and 
		    contributions from Tobias Oetiker and Niko 
                    Tyni
* URL             : http://search.cpan.org/dist/Config-Grammar/
* License         : GPL-1+ or Artistic (same as Perl)
  Section         : perl

It builds these binary packages:
libconfig-grammar-perl - A grammar-based user-friendly config parser

Long description (from package):
 Config::Grammar is a module to parse configuration files. The configuration
 may consist of multiple-level sections with assignments and tabular data. The
 parsed data will be returned as a hash containing the whole configuration.
 Config::Grammar uses a grammar that is supplied upon creation of a
 Config::Grammar object to parse the configuration file and return helpful
 error messages in case of syntax errors. Using the makepod method you can
 generate documentation of the configuration file format.
 .
 The maketmpl method can generate a template configuration file. If your
 grammar contains regexp matches, the template will not be all that helpful as
 Config::Grammar is not smart enough to give you sensible template data based
 in regular expressions. The related function maketmplmin generates a minimal
 configuration template without examples, regexps or comments and thus allows
 an experienced user to fill in the configuration data more efficiently.

Rationale: We use Config::Grammar for some of the "important" tools in
our system administration toolchest [0]. David worked in previous
years in the same group and so developped many of these tools, many of
them using the Config::Grammar Perl module.

The package appears to be lintian clean.

The upload would fix these bugs: 530937

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL:
  http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/l/libconfig-grammar-perl
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main contrib non-free
- dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/l/libconfig-grammar-perl/libconfig-grammar-perl_1.10-1.dsc

I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me.

Kind regards and thanks
 Salvatore Bonaccorso
