Request for Sponsor for Xeukleides/Xeuklides



Hi all,

I am not yet a debian developer, although I would like to be. I have changed the title of the ITO bug against wnpp indicating my intention to package xeuklides, a program to draw Euclidean geometry figures. I have also repackaged xeukleides which provides, replaces and conflicts with xeuklides. My packages are available in:

http://www.ginkwunk.net/~sbt/dists/unstable/main/binary-i386/

Adding:

deb http://www.ginkwunk.net/~sbt unstable main

to sources.list should work too.

I would greatly appreciate any help from a developer/potential sponsor who would look at may packages and provide constructive criticism. Please be gentle, I'm new at this.

Although the previous maintainer of xeuklides/xeukleides has not orphaned xeukleides, the program in active development, I believe his intention was to orphan both. He appears to have recently moved to a location without consistent Internet access. I have tried to reach him to confirm that he has intended to orphan both packages but have not been able to. Ultimately, I would like to mainatian xeukleides. The earlier version, xeuklides, should probably be removed from the archive. From the Developers Reference at 5.5.2 and 5.5.3, it appears that I should file a bug against ftp.debian.org to remove xeuklides, but I would appreciate confirmation that this is the right thing to do first.

Yours,

Streph
