Bug#174120: O: tcp4u -- tcp4u portable networking API

[Martin Michlmayr <tbm@cyrius.com>]

Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

The old maintainer of tcp4u, Brian Russo <wolfie@debian.org>, is
apparently not active anymore.  This package is thus being orphaned now.
If you want to be the new maintainer, please take it -- retitle this bug
from 'O:' to 'ITA:', fix the outstanding bugs and upload a new version
with your name in the Maintainer: field and a

   * New maintainer (Closes: #thisbug)

in the changelog so this bug is closed.

Description: The tcp4u portable networking API -- runtime package
 Tcp4u provides portable APIs which allow an easy use of the following
 IETF protocols : UDP, TCP, Telnet, HTTP 1.0 and SMTP.
 .
 The Tcp4u functions have been compiled and tested under the following
 operating system: Windows 3.1, Windows 95, Windows NT, Solaris (SunOS
 version 5), Sun OS version 4, HP-UX, Dec OSF1, AIX and Linux.
 .
 This package provides the runtime shared library. The libtcp4u-dev
 package provides the header files, and the static library.


[ Justification: Brian has not been around for quite a while.  His last
message (from July) gives someone else permission to adopt one of his
packages (see #151708).  I guess it's best for Debian to orphan all of
is packages.  Wolfie, sorry I have to do this to you, and I hope you
are still out there, alive and kicking! ]
