  Description     : Classified ads is internet messaging system done right

Dear Sirs,

I've uploaded a package into mentors.debian.net in a hope that others too 
will find it useful. It is my own attempt to handle human-to-human
communications inside internet, from end-users perspective. As a long-time
internet-user this is to-day more or less the way I see how messaging
should happen. Features of the program include, but are not limited to:
 * Sending and retrieving messages public and private, between humans
   or inside groups
 * No need for server-side support of any kind
 * Minimal hassle for the end-user
 * No need for contracts with any service-operators, not counting your ISP
 * Identification of message senders while allowing some withdrawal of
   personal details
 * Text-based search of public posting
 * Unfortunately no text-based or mobile UI yet, only Qt.
 * Early stage of development ; while basic functions seem to be all right
   there is surely bugs, "features" and 2 million fatal errors. 

As developer and user of the program I naturally will maintain it for debian
too. I'm not member of any packaging team but if I can give my hand to
any team interested, with my limited resources. 

I'm not a debian developer so I'm seeking for a sponsor to have a look at 
my sw ; please take contact via e-mail or to classified ads operator
6AC2D159AB3A0B0F241DD6D12E4A1673588DD0E8 that is the operator address
for my private messages.
