Hi,
I plan to package CommonC++ and have already posted a note to the
author and built packages which are available under
http://cyberlady.arcs.ac.at/~bernhard/CommonC++
The packages are lintian-clean and install clearly
I am also looking for a sponsor.

Description: CommonC++ runtime libraries
Common C++ is a C++ framework offering portable support for
threading, sockets, file access, deamons, persistance, and
system services, initially started by David Sugar and Daniel
Silverstone. Common C++ is a GNU package and is licensed to
the terms of the GNU GPL with specific privileges similar
to Guile.
.
Common C++ offers support and portable classes for threading
and sockets for both UNIX (Posix systems with "pthread"
support) and the Windows "Win32" API. Common C++ uses
extensive autoconf macro sets for automatic detection of
various levels of "pthread compliance" in your target
platform and attempts to adjust itself appropriately.
CommonC++ has been tested to date with GNU/Linux, FreeBSD,
Solaris, and DEC Tru64 Unix. HP/UX has also been tried and
found not to be successfully supported at this time.
.
While Common C++ is not directly related to GNU portable
threading (GNU Pth), it should work with the Pth "pthread
emulation" library at present. Common C++ will become usable
as a class framework for GNU Pth directly in future releases.
.
The primary goal of Common C++ is to promote a very low
overhead abstract C++ interface to common system services.
Consistent with this goal, and the desire for broad portability
with wide compiler support, specific aspects and practices in
C++ programming were selected when writing code in this package,
and other practices were discarded that seemed to detract
from this goal.
.
Currently this packages are not part of debian. Please do not
use the debian bugtracking system. If you find any errors in
the packages please do not hesitate to contact me at
bernhard@ratte.dhs.org.
