* Package name    : beast
  Version         : 0.9.3
  Upstream Author : Tim Janik <timj@gnu.org>

  Description     : Music Composer and Modular Synthesizer

Beast is a free software music composer and modular synthesizer.

It supports a wide range of standards in the field, such as MIDI,
FLAC/WAV/AIFF/MP3/OggVorbis audio files and LADSPA modules.
It allows for multitrack editing, unlimited undo/redo support,
real-time synthesis support, 32bit audio rendering and MMX/SSE
utilisation for synthesis plugins.


Beast has previously been shipped with Debian and got removed in
2014. The packaging efforts often lagged significantly behind
upstream and in the end the Debian maintainers abandoned it.

Now upstream is behind the packaging effort, the intent is for
the Debian package to follow upstream much closer and we are
integrating packaging builds into our continuous release process -
this is already working for a dependant package here:
  https://github.com/tim-janik/rapicorn/blob/master/.travis.yml

Ideally, we'd get helpful review for the packaging efforts from
pkg-multimedia-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org, and hopefully
a sponsor is willing to support uploads of the beast package.
