RFS: pdsh -- An efficient rsh-like utility, for using hosts in paralell



I'm looking for a sponsor for this package, all of the details should be below.

Previously, pdsh had some licensing issues that conflicted with the DFSG, but upstream has been gracious in clearing them up. I have current packages available at:

http://users.ntsource.com/~bpellin/debian/

* Package name    : pdsh
 Version         : 1.7-6
 Upstream Author : Jim Garlick <garlick@llnl.gov>
* URL             : http://www.llnl.gov/linux/pdsh/pdsh.html
* License         : GPLv2
Description :
Pdsh is a high-performance, parallel remote shell utility. It has
built-in, thread-safe clients for Berkeley and Kerberos V4 rsh, and can
call SSH externally (though with reduced performance). Pdsh uses a
"sliding window" parallel algorithm to conserve socket resources on the
initiating node and to allow progress to continue while timeouts occur
on some connections.
