Dear mentors, I am seeking a sponsor for this new package, gvpe. It builds an secure virtual ethernet between multiple endpoints and gateways, rather than a straight end-to-end VPN tunnel. This makes it more resilient to failures of individual nodes participating in the network. I filed an RFP originally, but I've since packaged it for my own use and had it running with no problems for some months, so I believe it's stable enough for the archive. It's written in C++ and includes sample configuration and full documentation. There's one lintian warning about a manual page which needs fixing upstream, otherwise it's clean with a pedantic check. It uses just debhelper 7 and autotools. The license is a mixture of GPL versions, LGPL and custom grants that I consider to be free according to DFSG. The copyright file is more complex than I have worked with before, so there may be comments you can make on it. This upload will close bug 515307. Even if you're unable or unwilling to make an upload, I'd appreciate a review. You can find the .dsc on mentors at http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/g/gvpe/gvpe_2.22-1.dsc TIA, -- Jonathan Wiltshire PGP/GPG: 0xDB800B52 / 4216 F01F DCA9 21AC F3D3 A903 CA6B EA3E DB80 0B52
