I'd be generally willing to sponsor it, but...
- Please close the WNPP bug 273204 which you opened yourself
one and a half year ago.
- Please use the current standards version.
- The copyright file should contain the years of copyright.
- There has been long time no change. Did you contact the upstream
to make sure the software is still maintained?
- Installing the README file doesn't seem to add any value for the
end-user.
- The upstream tarball I just fetched from the web site has another
md5 checksum than the orig.tar.gz you provide. How come?
At a first "diff -r" glance the two files have many differences.
- The package is not lintian clean. Three issues there.
Please fix that first.
Kindly
Christoph
