Bug#148380: ITP: coda -- The Coda advanced networked filesystem.



Package: wnpp
Version: N/A; reported 2002-05-28
Severity: wishlist

* Package name    : coda
  Version         : 5.3.19
  Upstream Author : Too many to list here.
* URL             : http://www.coda.cs.cmu.edu
* License         : GPL
  Description     : The Coda advanced networked filesystem.

(Quoted from the site)

Coda is a distributed filesystem with its origin in AFS2. It has many
features that are very desirable for network filesystems. Currently,
Coda has several features not found elsewhere.

1. disconnected operation for mobile computing
2. is freely available under a liberal license
3. high performance through client side persistent caching
4. server replication
5. security model for authentication, encryption and access control
6. continued operation during partial network failures in server network
7. network bandwith adaptation
8. good scalability
9. well defined semantics of sharing, even in the presence of network
   failures

I've been working on the coda packages for a while, after i got in touch with
Jan Harkes (the original packages author); i've already packaged the library
neede by coda:
 o liblwp-dev
 o liblwp2
 o librpc2-dev
 o librpc2-bin
 o librpc23
 o librvm-dev
 o librvm1
 o librvm-bin
I want to recheck them before upload.

I'm having some trouble (to say it all, they are only a lot of minor issues)
with the coda package it self:
 o coda-common
 o coda-client
 o coda-server
 o coda-update
 o coda-backup

I guess it will take some time.
Help in packaging is wellcome.
