Bug#183373: RFA: metakit -- MetaKit embeddable database
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
I request an adopter for the metakit package. The upstream maintainer
doesn't seem to have a clue about soname versioning, and me neither (and
I don't want to do one without upstream concensus). For I know next to
nothing about soname versioning (beside the things in the library
package howto and the libtool infopages, which didn't enlighten me in
that respect) I think someone more into libraries would be needed to
maintain this package like it deserves. Someone with python/tcl
knowledge would be a plus for there could be bindings compiled for
those, but I don't think that its a must for maintaining the package (I
don't know much about those languages neither).
The package description is:
MetaKit is an embeddable database library. It lets you build applications
which store their data efficiently, in a portable way, and which will not
need a runtime installation. In terms of the data model, MetaKit takes
the middle ground between RDBMS, OODBMS, and flat-file databases - yet it
is quite different from each of them.
Thanks to everyone interested,
Alfie
