Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal [important for RC bugs, wishlist for new packages]

Dear mentors,

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

 Package name    : vcmi
 Version         : 0.95-1
 Upstream Author : Micha³ Urbañczyk <impono@gmail.com> and others
 URL             : http://forum.vcmi.eu/portal.php
 License         : GPL2+
 Section         : games

It builds those binary packages:

  vcmi  - Rewrite of the Heroes of Might and Magic 3 game engine
cmi-dbg   - Debug symbols for vcmi package

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

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

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

  dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/v/vcmi/vcmi_0.95-1.dsc

VCMI is a free implementation of the Heroes of Might and Magic 3 game
engine as well as a platform for mods. VCMI is a turn-based strategy
game where the player controls a number of heroes commanding an army of
creatures. It extends the original capabilities of the game by
supporting maps of any size, greater display resolutions.

I'm also working on a project which allows to easily replace the proprietary
graphics of the original game by a free version at https://github.com/josch/lodextract

More information is available in the respective ITP bug#741640 which
includes some discussion on the debian-devel-games list. 

cheers, josch

It looks fine to me, and it works great... I've signed and uploaded the
package.
