Bug#846595: ITP: wok -- Webserver Originated from Kimchi



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Lucio Correia <luciojhc@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

* Package name    : wok
  Version         : 2.3.0
  Upstream Author : 2013-2016 International Business Machines Corporation and others
* URL             : https://github.com/kimchi-project/wok
* License         : LGPL-2.1+ and Apache-2.0
  Programming Lang: Python
  Description     : Webserver Originated from Kimchi

Wok is a cherrypy-based web framework with HTML5 support that is extended by
plugins which expose functionality through REST APIs.
Examples of such plugins are Kimchi (Virtualization Management) and Ginger
(System Administration). Wok comes with a sample plugin for education purposes.
Wok runs through wok service.



In order to update kimchi and ginger packages to their latest upstream
versions (2.3), wok package is needed as a dependency.

Wok is a split out of kimchi's web framework. Kimchi is now focused on
virtualization functionality and became a plugin of Wok.

Most of Wok code was already being analyzed as part of Kimchi ITP at
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=772823 and RFS at
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=800966.

We intend to provide Wok along with Kimchi, Ginger and Ginger-Base
plugins every Debian release.

We look for a sponsor.
