SeaDAS <- SDP Toolkit <- HDF-EOS, HDF-EOS 5

[Ivan Shmakov <ivan@theory.asu.ru>]

	I'm interested in packaging SeaDAS [1] as a Debian package, and
	since it relies on SDP Toolkit and the HDF-EOS libraries [2],
	I'm interested in packaging these as well.

	I believe I've a decent experience in building both SDP Toolkit
	and HDF-EOS and the only issue left unresolved is their legal
	status.  I'm now contacting developers in order to clarify it,
	and I've got a preliminary reply that these qualify as free
	software.  (Actually, the HDF-EOS source is included in the GDAL
	source package, which is in `main'.)  Once the conditions will
	be clarified I'll prepare the Debian packages.

	I'm therefore asking, whether there're any interest in having
	such a specialized software packages in Debian, and could anyone
	review and sponsor these packages for me (I'm not a DD) once
	they'll be ready?
