Would you mind maintaining this package within Debian perl packaging team [1]?
(This would make finding sponsors much easier)

All the best

Hello Dominique and all others,

Sure, there is no problem for me to maintain it within Debian Perl Team if it can help

So here I am, billou57-guest on Alioth. I am french, 42 years old. I use Debian since
Slink and Perl daily since something like 20 years :-) I have rather good knowledge
of both. My main usage of Perl is to handle various format of rich text news. I think I
can help  the team but I sure have to learn how the Team works.

Business::ISIN for which I opened an ITP last week is an old module that I use in
order to validate ISIN according to ISO 3166 (or ISO 6166) which is a classification
of financial instruments. I've been using it since it's been released and it still works
perfectly, being used professionally for a big financial french website. I don't know
how useful one can consider it, but it is a nice piece of code so useful for me
(again, thanks David !)

Regards
