RFS: Toonloop, python-purity, python-portmidi

[Alexandre Quessy <alexandre@quessy.net>]

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my packages "toonloop", "python-purity"
and "python-portmidi". Those packages all involve audio/visuals and
networking with Python for media arts.

* Package name    : toonloop
  Version         : 1.1.4
  Upstream Author : Alexandre Quessy
* URL             : www.toonloop.com
* License         : GPL v3
  Section         : python

It builds these binary packages:
toonloop   - The Toonloop Live Stop Motion Tool.

My motivation for maintaining this package is: Toonloop is my dearest
project, and APT my favourite package manager.

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/t/toonloop
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable
main contrib non-free
- dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/t/toonloop/toonloop_1.1.4.dsc
----------------
I have also an other package to propose, that is python-purity.

* Package name    : python-purity
  Version         : 0.2.4
  Upstream Author : Alexandre Quessy
* URL             : http://bitbucket.org/aalex/purity/
* License         : GPL v3, unless I change it to LGPL
  Section         : python

It builds these binary packages:
python-purity - The Purity library for Pure Data dynamic patching.

My motivation for maintaining this package is: I wrote this library.
It wraps Pure Data in the elegant Python language.

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/p/python-purity
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable
main contrib non-free
- dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/p/python-purity/python-purity_0.2.4.dsc
----------------
Finally, it would be simpler if the same mentor would also be my
mentor for the package "python-portmidi".
I don't know why, but I couldn't upload this one. Here is the output
of dupload :

{{{
aalex@plouf:~/src$ dupload -t mentors python-portmidi_0.0.6-4_i386.changes
dupload note: no announcement will be sent.

 python-portmidi_0.0.6-4.dsc, md5sum ok, already done for mentors
 python-portmidi_0.0.6-4_i386.changes ok, already done for mentors ]
Nothing to upload
}}}

Maybe I should publish them all under the same GPG key and email
address. Also, I should change the maintainer of the toonloop to me.
(it is not the case in the debian/control file right now) There are
still some issues to fix with the packaging.

My motivation for maintaining this package is: there was no package
for Debian, as far as I know, for a PortMidi wrapper in Python. I made
this one from an old module, including the changes made in the pygame
project. MIDI allows to use nice controllers with a software project.

I would be glad if someone uploaded these packages for me, once
everything is fine with them.

Kind regards
