Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

Greetings,

I intend to package PySparse, which is a sparse linear algebra extension
for Python by Roman Geus.  I downloaded version 0.34.032 (June 22, 2005)
from http://sourceforge.net/projects/pysparse/

I may need help with a couple of things.  First, this is my first python
package, and I am using python-numeric as a guide, which has many of the
same dependencies as pysparse, but will likely run into trouble and need
help along the way.

Second, I may need some advice on the license:

I believe this allows redistribution by Debian, but can't tell whether
this restricts this package to non-free.
