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 uni2ascii Package: uni2ascii Binary: uni2ascii Version: 3.0-1 Priority: optional Section: text Maintainer: Florian Ernst <florian@debian.org> Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 5), autotools-dev Architecture: any Standards-Version: 3.6.2 Format: 1.0 Directory: pool/main/u/uni2ascii Files: 6a800b7bd87c9b4c6f33cbfd0709454c 574 uni2ascii_3.0-1.dsc eed93b87bc63323ae75a88e398d4b8c6 98046 uni2ascii_3.0.orig.tar.gz 4c08ffb6e6b3e413ae74b142d67d8afd 2603 uni2ascii_3.0-1.diff.gz $ apt-cache show uni2ascii Package: uni2ascii Priority: optional Section: text Installed-Size: 96 Maintainer: Florian Ernst <florian@debian.org> Architecture: i386 Version: 3.0-1 Depends: libc6 (>= 2.3.5-1) Filename: pool/main/u/uni2ascii/uni2ascii_3.0-1_i386.deb Size: 19826 MD5sum: 419404eec93f9a551c3ca2b202628f91 Description: convert UTF-8 into 7-bit ASCII and vice versa uni2ascii provides conversion in both directions between UTF-8 Unicode and a variety of 7-bit ASCII equivalents, including HTML numeric character references, various escapes and hexadecimal. Such ASCII equivalents are useful when including Unicode text in program source, when debugging, and when entering text into web programs that can handle the Unicode character set but are not 8-bit safe. .
