Package: wnpp Severity: normal IMVHO this package is in a pretty good shape, and I don't see any particular tasks that really need to be done. However, for some reason I'm not that fond of it and / or don't use it regularily anymore, so as part of some restructuring on my side I'm willing to let this package go and find a loving new maintainer for it. NB: This package is quite easy to maintain and thus might be just the right choice for any aspiring new maintainer trying to get his hands wet. If you have a sponsor (or don't need one) please just take over. Otherwise I might be interested in sponsoring a new maintainer, provided the changes a) show _no_ regressions and b) provide substantial improvements (no, just putting your name on it and changing to your packaging style of choice is _not_ substantial in my eyes). Either way please follow the standard procedure as outlined on <http://www.debian.org/devel/wnpp/> for taking over. Until a new maintainer has been found I will continue to take care just as before, of course... $ apt-cache showsrc libhtml-fromtext-perl Package: libhtml-fromtext-perl Binary: libhtml-fromtext-perl Version: 2.05-3 Priority: optional Section: perl Maintainer: Florian Ernst <florian@debian.org> Build-Depends-Indep: debhelper (>= 4.1.0), perl (>= 5.8.0), libscalar-list-utils-perl, libhtml-parser-perl, libregexp-common-perl, libemail-find-perl, libexporter-lite-perl, libtest-pod-perl (>= 0.95-1), libtest-simple-perl Architecture: all Standards-Version: 3.6.2 Format: 1.0 Directory: pool/main/libh/libhtml-fromtext-perl Files: d29ad7a82016b62cd4f3b83586affe12 802 libhtml-fromtext-perl_2.05-3.dsc fb8ae4ab0cae0b57101f78b046b3927b 13875 libhtml-fromtext-perl_2.05.orig.tar.gz 1aa619b86843d1edfc742ac5c4411e8b 2948 libhtml-fromtext-perl_2.05-3.diff.gz $ apt-cache show libhtml-fromtext-perl Package: libhtml-fromtext-perl Priority: optional Section: perl Installed-Size: 88 Maintainer: Florian Ernst <florian@debian.org> Architecture: all Version: 2.05-3 Depends: perl (>= 5.8.0), libscalar-list-utils-perl, libhtml-parser-perl, libregexp-common-perl, libemail-find-perl, libexporter-lite-perl Filename: pool/main/libh/libhtml-fromtext-perl/libhtml-fromtext-perl_2.05-3_all.deb Size: 18748 MD5sum: 5fe89bd9675560592378670c229e535a Description: Mark up text as HTML This is the CPAN Perl module HTML::FromText. . The HTML::FromText module marks up plain text as HTML. By default it converts HTML metacharacters into the corresponding entities. More sophisticated transformations, such as splitting the text into paragraphs or marking up bulleted lists, can be carried out by setting the appropriate options. .
