RFS: mbuffer (new package)



Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for the initial upload of my package
"mbuffer" - a simple tool for buffering data streams for various
purposes, including writing to block devices, testing throughput,
and many others.

* Package name    : mbuffer
  Version         : 20090628-1
  Upstream Author : Thomas Maier-Komor <thomas@maier-komor.de>
* URL             : http://www.maier-komor.de/mbuffer.html
* License         : GPL-3+
* Language        : C

There is a single binary package:
mbuffer    - tool for buffering data streams
 The mbuffer tool is used to buffer data streams and show the I/O rate and
 summary to the user.  It is especially useful for writing backups to
 fast tape drives or streaming them over the network.  If used correctly,
 it can prevent buffer underruns and speed up the whole backup or
 transfer process.

It has been tested with lintian and pbuilder.

The upload would fix these bugs: 534216

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/m/mbuffer/mbuffer_20090628-1.dsc

I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me.

G'luck,
Peter
