[Andrea Bernardini <andrebask@gmail.com>]

Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: wishlist


  Dear mentors,

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

 * Package name    : kawa
   Version         : 2.1-1
   Upstream Author : Per Bothner <per@bothner.com>
 * URL             : http://www.gnu.org/software/kawa/
 * License         : MIT/X
   Section         : lisp

  It builds those binary packages:

    kawa  - general-purpose programming language that runs on the Java platform

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

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


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

    dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/k/kawa/kawa_2.1-1.dsc

  More information about kawa can be obtained from http://www.gnu.org/software/kawa/

  
  I removed the documentation files from the upstream tarball, because lintian
  recognised them as non-free. After reading [1] and [2] I thought that was a good 
  idea. I plan to submit the doc files later as a separate non-free package.
