Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
I request an adopter for the timidity package. I like it a lot, and it is
my preferred MIDI/module player, but I simply don't have the time to give it
the attention it deserves.
The package description is:
TiMidity++ is a very high quality software-only MIDI sequencer and MOD player.
It uses sound fonts (GUS-compatible or SF2-compatible) to render MIDI files,
which are not included in this package.
.
* Plays MIDI files without any external MIDI instruments at all
* Understands SMF, RCP/R36/G18/G36, MFI, RMI (MIDI)
* Autodetects and supports GM/GS/XG MIDI
* Understands MOD, XM, S3M, IT, 699, AMF, DSM, FAR, GDM,
IMF, MED, MTM, STM, STX, ULT, UNI (MOD)
* Does MOD to MIDI conversion (including playback)
* Outputs audio into various audio file formats: WAV, au, AIFF,
Ogg (Vorbis, FLAC, Speex)
* Supports NAS, eSound, ARtS, JACK, ALSA and OSS drivers
* Uses Gravis Ultrasound compatible patch files and SoundFont2 patch
files as the voice data for MIDI instruments
* Supports playing from archives (zip, lzh, tar...) and playing remote
data from the network
* Timidity++ can be used as an ALSA sequencer device
.

Upstream is friendly, but quite slow to respond (beause it is probably as
busy as I am right now), so the new maintainer should be prepared to debug
and fix upstream issues himself. This means you better understand C very
well, and also know at least the basics of MIDI and ALSA (or learn them).
Output interfaces other than the ones upstream uses are a pain, and require
constant babysitting.
The seekable ogg vorbis and ogg FLAC stream support needs work, too.
*IF* you are going to adopt it, contact me directly to get the full VC
history tree (CVS), and other stuff that will help debugging MIDIs.
