Bug#868226: RFS: KensBingo/1.0.0

[Ken Williams]

Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal

Package name: KensBingo
Version: 1.0.1
URL: www.cftb.net

I will probably get flamed for posting this but here goes

Many years ago I wrote a simple bingo program for use in a bar I used to
go to as a regular, this was written using c# and .NET

I have recently re-written it in Python, and think it would be a nice
companion to the PyKaraoke package.

It just generates random bingo numbers, and includes a check screen

It's all extremely simple, and only comprises one small short Python
file, so all the complex info about packaging for deb I find over
complex for one short Python file.

Could anyone possibly consider putting it in the deb repo for me, I have
not even followed the "Git" route, as again that seems to apply more to
complex programs.

My software which being Python runs from the source code can be found on
the Bingo page atwww.cftb.net, I have no copyright issues, it can be
freely copied and distributed.

Ken

This is not an RFS thus closing it.

Doesn't sound too convincing for me, but whatever.

If you want that you may file an RFP instead, see
https://wiki.debian.org/RFP
Note though that request for packaging random software rarely have any
effect.

"freely copied and distributed" is not enough for us though (lacks "freely
modified" among other things). You should use a real free license, like
Expat.
