Mentor Request



My name is Philip Hempel, I am looking for someone that would be willing to sponser me for a package called MessageWall from http://messagewall.org.

This package hase two libraries that it depends on. The first is libfirestring, a package used for parsing and managing configurations. The second is libfiredns, used for DNS queries. The two packages are from the same upstream maintainer, ian@penguinhosting.net. I have sent a request to upstream requesting his blessing and have been told that one other is hoping to place the libs and dsbl-testers into Debian (Andres Salomon, a present Debian maintainer), as of today and at least two e-mails to the developer he has not responded but once and his statement is that he is still working on his libs. I have sent one e-mail requesting a time for uploads and have not had a return answer. I would like to see this package available and used widely, mainly to stop spamming at the source.

The package requires a mail-transport-agent, svtools, libssl, dameontools that are presently available for debian. This package is a spam prevention and virus protector for your MTA. This is my first package but have been sucsessfully using it as a debian package on my system since June 22, 2002 and the libraries since May 18 2002. These packages seem, from my checking not to have any conflicts with any other packages. I have been maintaining MessageWal for my mail server since version 0.1.19 and have at present 19 revisions.

Thanks and I hope that this package will be allowed into Debian with the support of a mentor. Please feel free to e-mail me if any further information is needed.
