I'm looking for a sponsor for any one of three packages. I've requested a sponsor for salonify several times in the past with no luck, so I thought I'd try two new packages that perhaps will have broader appeal. They are fairly simple programs and packages, and all pass linda and lintian. I also have filed ITP's on all of them, and am also in the Debian New Maintainer queue. I passed the advocate check on 7/18 and have been sitting there ever since. My apt source: deb http://bostoncoop.net/adam/debian unstable main The new packages are: libwww-shorten-perl - Abstract interface to URL shortening sites This package contains a variety of modules to interface with many URL shortening sites. Each site maintains a database of long URLs, each of which has a unique identifier. shorlfilter - Text filter to shorten long URLs using online redirection database Shorlfilter takes all HTTP links in input text longer than a specified length and converts them to short links through the online shorl database. It is particularly handy for email, and can be used as a vim or mutt macro. salonify - Easy, configurable, compliant, and accessible web-based image gallery system salonify is a Perl script which displays images that you have organized in a directory hierarchy. The Web user can choose to see photos as thumbnails or in small, medium, or full-size format; rotate the images; modify the captions; move from folder to folder or image to image easily; and customize the layout. The administrator can also take away any of these abilities from the user if they want. By default, the captioning is totally democratic (or wiki-like)--anyone visiting your site can change the captions. You can also lock this down. Salonify generates nearly w3c-compliant HTML (getting closer all the time) and renders quite well in all tested browsers, including w3m-img, lynx, Mozilla, Opera, Netscape, Internet Explorer, etc.. It uses JavaScript when available but does not depend on it, and makes special allowances for bugs in certain browsers. -- Adam Kessel http://bostoncoop.net/adam
