Dear mentors, I am looking for a sponsor for my source package "qrfcview". * Package name : qrfcview Version : 0.62-1 Upstream Author : Romain ROLLET <rfcview@gmail.com> * URL : http://qrfcview.berlios.de/ * License : GPL Section : doc Programming Lang: C++ Description : viewer for IETF RFCs It builds this binary package: qrfcview - viewer for IETF RFCs The package is linda and lintian clean and compiles with pbuilder. The upload would fix this ITP bug: 378587 The package can be found on mentors.debian.net at http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/q/qrfcview Or just "apt-get source qrfcview" if your sources.list contains: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main contrib non-free I would be glad if someone would be interested in sponsoring this package. Some other bits of information (from the package description): qRFCView is a smart IETF RFC viewer based on the Qt4 library featuring: * automatic table of content, with direct opening of section; * handling of RFC internal cross-references; * automatic downloading of a referenced RFC from the IETF web site on a simple click; * caching of RFC in a local directory; * tab-browsing of RFC; * searching. Homepage: http://qrfcview.berlios.de/ And about rfc-doc (from the README.Debian): doc-rfc: if you have installed this package (in non-free) you might want to take advantage of the locally installed RFCs. You can add the /usr/share/doc/RFC/links/ directory to the directories used by qRFCView (menu Edit -> Set Directories). Unfortunately most of the files there are gzipped which is something qRFCView does not deal with yet (it expects only .txt files). Some questions I still have with respect to the package: * The binary has upper case (qRFCView). I have not seen anything against it in the policy so I have followed there upstream choice. But in case I have missed something... * Upstream uses QSettings (http://doc.trolltech.com/4.1/qsettings.html) to store the configuration files. Is there a special Debian policy (or best practice) with respect to this. I have not found any. An i386 binary may be found there : http://lehobey-rennes.dyndns.org/qrfcview/qrfcview_0.62-1_i386.deb Kind regards, Frédéric LEHOBEY
