As time goes by …
Debian Sponsoring Of the Month
This software is a programmable tool for verification, analysis and transformation of C++ source code.
It is mainly an engine that parses C++ source files and presents the result of this parsing to scripts in the form of various collections. Afterwards the scripts are actually performing the requested tasks.
This is a link to the Debian PTS page.
The next DSOM package is cd-discid. The DiscID can be used to query for example the FreeDB database.
It is already part of the archive but needed an upload for a new version. I cheated a bit as I already did all work last month. Timur, the current maintainer, fixed an FTBFS on Hurd and I wanted to upload it before the Wheezy-freeze.
Here is the PTS page.
Similar to DOPOM, that I mentioned in a previous post, I would also like to start DSOM (Debian Sponsoring Of the Month). As I still remember the times when I was looking for a sponsor for my packages, I would like to make that time a bit more pleasant to future DMs or DDs. So each month I pick at least one RFS or something similar and try to make the package fit for upload.
Of course you could also send me an email to dsom@alteholz.eu and advertise your package.
This month I have choosen shotdetect, a scene change detector in movies. It is already available in unstable so more information are available on the PTS page.
