Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I intend to orphan the shoes package; I haven't used it myself for a very long
time, and while the package has occasionally been updated to make sure it
continues to build, it hasn't been updated to any new "upstream" version
(upstream in quotes because _why, the original creator of shoes, has left some
time ago, and while there has been development by others, I have not closely
followed that).  In short: the current version in Debian is very old; if
anybody wants to maintain it, it should at least be updated to a more current
version.

The package description is:
 Shoes is a very informal graphics and windowing toolkit for making simple
 graphical applications.  It blends ideas from the web (hyperlinks, simple text
 layout, and more) from traditional windowing toolkits (buttons, progress bars,
 dialogs and the like) and applications like NodeBox and Processing (drawing
 anywhere on the window with shapes and curves, simple animation).
 .
 Shoes uses Ruby as its interface language; applications created with it can
 run on Windows, Mac OS X and Linux.
