Bug#389394: O: netenv -- Configure your system for different network environments
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
I hereby orphan netenv. I do no longer use it, and my limited time does
not allow properly maintaining it.
It's unique feature, compared to other packages for managing a laptop in
different network enviroments, is that it does not at all try to detect
anything automatically: All is in the hands of the person sitting at
the keyboard while booting.
Because of this unique feature, I think it deserves being maintained.
It's completely written in shell (bash, actually). Upstream exists and
responds to e-mail (with long delays), but upstream development is very
slow - there are simply not many improvements to make. Some
Debian-specific improvements I made, however, where rejected upstream,
so there are some differences in how the script acts. The new
maintainer should be willing to maintain these parts, too.
Regards, Frank
