-----------------
Noah wrote me:
I have submitted an ITP for the wmwave program for monitoring the
status of a wirless ethernet connection. It is a very simple package,
but I chose to work in it as there were no interesting packages
available for adoption and I wanted something straightforward to work
on initially. I have been active on debian-user for a number of years
and have taken part in the testing of numerous release freezes. I
have submitted bug reports when necessary. As for work I intend to do
in the future, I wish to work on IPV6 support in the distribution. I
am currently using woody in an IPv6 environment and have been tracking
kernel and glibc development efforts with respect to IPv6. I am also
a system administrator by trade and can provide provide both admin
services and bandwidth if needed (through mit.edu in the US). I have
worked as a "web programmer" creating dynamic, database driven web
sites using Apache, Perl, and Linux in the past and am very willing
and able to help in that regard.
His package wmwave can be downloaded at
http://locust.lcs.mit.edu/~noahm/wmwave/. I checked it, and apart from a
small lintian error (man page in wrong dir) it looks ok. I asked Noah to
correct this little error, which he swiftly did.
Tasks and skills check passed.
