Bug#669720: RFS/Review: reviewboard/1.6.5-1 [ITP] -- Web-based code review tool

[Dmitry Nezhevenko <dion@dion.org.ua>]

Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: wishlist

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "reviewboard"

 * Package name    : reviewboard
   Version         : 1.6.5-1
   Upstream Author : Christian Hammond, David Trowbridge
 * URL             : http://reviewboard.org/
 * License         : MIT
   Section         : devel

It builds those binary packages:

   reviewboard     - Web-based code review tool
   reviewboard-doc - ReviewBoard documentation

To access further information about this package, please visit the following URL:

   http://mentors.debian.net/package/reviewboard

Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command:

   dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/r/reviewboard/reviewboard_1.6.5-1.dsc

Package has a few overridden pedantic/experimental lintian warnings
mostly because it has some test data in source tarball (that is not
distributed within binary packages). Otherwise it seems to be
lintian-clean

ReviewBoard is powerful web-based code review tool. It allows one
developers to publish code review request either using web browser or
special post-review tool for compatible VCS (that is already packaged in
python-rbtools package). Other developers can look though changes using
web browser, post comments, etc. One of the coolest feature is ability to
do some kind of "incremental" reviews: reviewers can display only portion
of diff changed since previous review for same patch.

More information about ReviewBoard is available at http://reviewboard.org/

Looks like currently Debian archive lacks such tools at all.

PS. This package depends on two other packages with python modules that
are not currently in Debian. I've already filled RFS for them:

   python-django-djblets/0.6.17-1  -- #669598
   python-django-evolution/0.6.7-1 -- #669599

So until they are uploaded, this is mostly request for review.
