Bug#775194: RFS: mininet/2.2.0 ITP - process-based network emulator

[Tomasz Buchert <tomasz.buchert@inria.fr>]

Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal

  Dear mentors,

  I am looking for a sponsor for my package "mininet":

 * Package name    : mininet
   Version         : 2.2.0
   Upstream Author : Bob Lantz et al.
 * URL             : http://mininet.org/
 * License         : BSD-like (mininet-license)
   Section         : net

  It builds those binary packages:

    mininet - process-based network emulator

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

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

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

  dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/m/mininet/mininet_2.2.0-1.dsc

  More information about hello can be obtained from http://www.mininet.org.

  Notes:

    * the package was difficult to prepare for reasons related to open vswitch:
      https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=757761;
      the bug was workarounded and the new version does not require
      Openswitch controller in the system (it will degrade to pure software
      switch, see: https://github.com/mininet/mininet/pull/432)

  Regards,
  T. Buchert
