RFS: html-xml-utils (W3C simple HTML and XML utilities)



Greetings,

I'm looking for a sponsor for html-xml-utils.  This is a collection of
simple command-line utilities developed at the W3C for manipulating HTML
and XML files.  (I asked for a sponsor for this on here a while ago, but
didn't get one so I'm trying again.  If I'm missing something, please
let me know.)

I have prefixed the names of the executables with "hx_" to try to avoid
name conflicts (this was in the upstream TODO file).  The package is
lintian clean.  I have contacted upstream, and he would be glad to have
html-xml-utils available as a Debian package.

html-xml-utils is under the W3C Software Notice and License, which looks
okay to me.  This license was asked about once already on debian-legal
and the only response they got said that it looked DFSG-free.

Description: utilities for manipulating HTML and XML files
A number of simple programs for manipulating HTML and XML: number
headings, make a table of contents, make an index, manage bibliographic
references (a simple implementation of refer(1) for HTML), list all
links, create cross-references, extract elements that match a (CSS)
selector, etc. Most are meant to be used in a Unix pipe or in shell
scripts.

Thanks.


Regards,
Beverly
