That's right. The process to become a DD is lengthy, and I'd like to see
kimdaba in Debian soon. Getting a sponsor is the way to go.
Unfortunately, no DD has shown any interest yet.

Dear DD,

 Have you ever thought of becoming a sponsor, but you discarded the idea
because you thought it would mean too much work?

 I've got the solution, my package: kimdaba. Trust me, the package is
perfect! Just give it a chance, it will take you no time and you will be
able to impress your fellow DD's:

  a_DD You shut up!, what have you done for Debian lately?, huh?
   you I now sponsor a great piece of software, kimdaba. And you?
  a_DD Uh, ok, sorry dude. Err, you know, it's getting late, see ya!
  (a_DD has signed off): Set off to find a package to sponsor.

 You can find the package's RFS at: 
   http://www-gsi.dec.usc.es/~dave/projects/kimdaba/RFS.html

Thank you in advance,

David L. Moreno

 I am looking for a sponsor for a great piece of software, KimDaBa.

Hi David,
I'll be happy to take a look at this package for you, if you don't 
mind waiting a couple of days for a very busy period to pass with my 
(non-debian) work.

cheers.

RFS: kimdaba - KDE tool for indexing, searching and viewing images by keywords

2004-08-24 Thread David López Moreno
Hello,

I am looking for a sponsor for a great piece of software, KimDaBa. 

Note: I've unsuccessfully tried (twice) to find a sponsor on the mentors 
mailing list, but nobody seems interested. If you are a DD and like KDE, 
please read on!

I bet all of you have hundreds or even thousands of images on your hard drive,
collected since you got your first digital camera. And I'm sure that 
through all these years you believed that until eternity you would be able to 
remember the story behind every single picture, the names of all the persons 
on your images and the exact date of every single image.

I guess you have already realized, just like I did, that this is not
possible anymore. Especially for digital images - but also for paper
images - we needed a tool to help us describe our images, and to search
in the pile of images. This is exactly what KimDaBa is all about. 

... Technical details ...

Package description:

* Package name: kimdaba
  Version : 1.1
  Upstream Author : Jesper K. Pedersen [EMAIL PROTECTED]
* URL : http://ktown.kde.org/kimdaba/
* License : GPL v2
  Description : KDE tool for indexing, searching and viewing
images by keywords

KDE Image Database (KimDaBa) lets you index, search, group and view
images by keywords, date, locations and persons. It provides a quick and
elegant way to lookup groups of images when you have thousands of
pictures on your hard disk.

The information associated with each photo is stored in a XML file. 
Together with its keywords, KimDaBa stores each picture's MD5 sum, so it
will recognize them even if you move them to another directory. KimDaBa
can also create HTML galleries with the images you select.


Source package is available from:
deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main contrib non-free

Complete package (source+binary) is available at:
http://www-gsi.dec.usc.es/~dave/projects/kimdaba

Package is lintian and linda clean and cleanly builds with pbuilder (sid
environment).

The ITP Bug is #227525 [1]

Any comments/suggestions welcome. 

Thanks in advance for your time,

David L. Moreno
