I know graphviz, but it's not really a similar package. Dot is meant for
graphs; aspic is meant for line art. While both produce drawings based
on a plain text input, they do this in different ways. For example, with
aspic it's possible to draw a house, or a person, or something similar,
should you want to; the same is not true for graphviz.

Having said that, if you're interested in maintaining aspic, I recommend
that you first familiarize yourself with its source. I'll happily
sponsor your uploads, if you need me to.

Also: could you point me to the two packages that you've already made?
I could have a look at them, and possibly sponsor an upload there as
well.

Regards,
