Package: sponsorship-requests Severity: normal Dear mentors,
I am looking for a sponsor for my package "sblim-wbemcli" Package name : sblim-wbemcli Version : 1.6.2-4 Upstream Author : Tyrel Datwyler <tyr...@us.ibm.com> URL : http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/sblim/index.php?title=Wbemcli License : Eclipse Public License -v 1.0 Programming Lang: C++ Section : misc It builds those binary packages: sblim-wbemcli - WBEM Command Line Interface sblim-wbemcli-dbg - debugging symbols for sblim-wbemcli To access further information about this package, please visit the following URL: http://mentors.debian.net/package/sblim-wbemcli Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command: dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/sblim-wbemcli/sblim-wbemcli_1.6.2-4.dsc As an introduction, let me quote its long description from the homepage of the sblim SourceForge project (http://sblim.wiki.sourceforge.net): The WBEM Command Line Interface is a standalone, convenient systems management utility for CIMOM access. Invocation and output syntax are problem-oriented and well suited for interactively inclusion in Shell and Perl scripts. It is especially suited for administrators writing their own management scripts or for WBEM developers that want to test their providers. WBEM (Web-Based Enterprise Management) is a successor of SNMP and the basis of SMI-S (Storage Management Initiative), a standard interface to storage devices. WBEM itself has a much wider scope, thus more ambitious projects like OpenPegasus exist, but the single wbemcli module of the sblim project is enough to monitor disk and RAID states in SMI-S compatible storage products for example. This is also my actual use- case and reason for packaging it: using an OS-component in our monitoring system is much easier than carrying along custom binaries. wbemcli is also part of the Ubuntu WBEM stack; see for example https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WBEMStackSpec for evaluation of the alternatives. Comments, questions and sponsors are much appreciated. Actually, I'm rather uncertain about the header format of the patch gcc4.7-fixes, which could use two Origin fields due to CVS' inability to export patches touching multiple files, but DEP-3 does not seem to allow such construction... Also, the admin, net and utils sections all seem more appropriate than the current misc. Which one should I choose? -- Thanks, Feri. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
