Bug#823141: RFP: timeline -- An application to show events on a timeline
Hi,
I have filed an RFP
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=823141
(I would rather name those WFP - Wish For Packaging, but, oh
well) for a Python based timeline application
http://thetimelineproj.sourceforge.net
Contrary to the report it would need to be named, say,
thetimelineproj
py-timeline
pytimeline
timelinenavigator
or some such because Mattia Rizzolo pointed out that
"timeline" already exists
https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/timeline
as a source package (not that I think that that's a good fit
for a generic mozilla extension source package but first
come first serve I guess ... :)
Upstream agrees that "timeline" is too generic a name.
https://sourceforge.net/p/thetimelineproj/mailman/message/35055472/
I wondered whether someone in "pkg-python-apps" would have
the resources and interest to maintain a package. Matthia
suggested I contact this list to find out.
Note that I don't _expect_ people to devote time and energy
just because I think that'd be useful but unless I ask I
can't know :-)
Upstream's installation instructions are here:
http://thetimelineproj.sourceforge.net/installing.html
Fedora does have a package (Ubuntu does not):
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/package/rpms/timeline/
There's an unmet dependancy on humblewx
https://github.com/thetimelineproj/humblewx
which is available from PyPI, however:
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/humblewx
Metadata-Version: 1.0
Name: humblewx
Version: 0.2.1
Summary: Library that simplifies creating user interfaces with wxPython.
