Bug#346583: RFA: em8300 -- Drivers for DXR3/Hollywood+ decoder cards

[Nicolas Boullis <nboullis@debian.org>]

Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

Hi,

Since I became maintainer for the em8300 packages, I've become active on 
the upstream side of that package. I don't think it is a good idea that 
upstream is also the sole debian maintainer of the package. Hence, I 
hereby request an adopter for the em8300 package. Please note that team 
maintainance is alright as far as I am concerned (I'd be happy to be 
part of the team), but if someone volunteers to be the sole maintainer 
of the package, I hve no objection. Also note that I'd be happy to 
sponsor uploads for NM.

The common package description is:
 Drivers for MPEG decoder cards based on Sigma Designs' EM8300 chip
 (such as the Creative Labs DXR3 or the Sigma Designs Hollywood+).
 .
 Currently the device drivers support decoding MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 streams
 and generating video on the TV-out and VGA Overlay connectors. Audio can
 be played through the analog or S/PDIF digital connectors.


Thanks in advance,

Nicolas
