Packaging the secure email system Confidant Mail



Hello mentors,

Is there a mentor available to help me get Confidant Mail into the Debian repository? This should not be too difficult, as I already have a .deb package working, and the program is pure python 2.7

https://www.confidantmail.org/download/
https://www.confidantmail.org/download/confidantmail_0.41-1.deb
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=874340

* Package name    : confidantmail
 Version         : 0.41
 Upstream Author : Mike Ingle <mike@confidantmail.org>
* URL             : https://www.confidantmail.org/
* License         : GPL
 Programming Lang: Python 2.7
 Description     : Secure GPG-based non-SMTP email and large file transfer

Secure GPG-based non-SMTP email and large file transfer. Has a wxPython GUI
that resembles Thunderbird. Can send multi-gigabyte attachments in chunks over clearnet, Tor, i2p. Anyone can run a server and all servers exchange messages. Uses a DHT for key distribution. There is a public server cluster available for
anyone to use.

Dependencies: python-wxgtk3.0 python-twisted python-enchant
 python-socks python-cryptography

I already have a working .deb package on the website. Code is all python and
GPL.

Servers have been up since 2015, Windows and MacOS clients are also available.
Uses Entangled DHT code, which is GPL, was abandoned by its author, and I
released a bugfix version. I'm going to ask for a mentor on the debian-mentors list.

Thank you,
Mike
