Bug#565695: ITP: libiscwt-java -- abstraction and implementations for rendering PDF

2010-01-17 Thread Steffen Möller
Package: wnpp

  Description : abstraction and implementations for rendering PDF

 To built a flexible PDF rendering one first needed some basics
 functionality to deal with fonts, images and general platform
 abstractions. The result is isCWT. It contains all abstraction and
 implementations needed for rendering PDF that are not related to PDF
 itself.  This library is built and used primarily for jPod Renderer,
 so one is likely to miss some features when using it in another context.

Few months ago I tried to contact him for same reason (outdated kannel
package) but didn't received any answer.
In the meantime I stopped to use kannel extensively so I didn't tried
again but just created bare-bone packages from upstream for use on one
server.

It would be nice if you take maintenance over kannel to have it in
Debian repository. I'm ready to help as much as I can and have time.

NO.

Thanks for pointing me to devref!

Looking there[1], I must disagree, however: m...@seems to not be a 
querying tool but rather the place to report hard evidence - of which I 
have none.


I am at the prior step of vaguely asking around.


I realize now that I have failed to attempt reaching him by discrete 
email.  I will try that, wait a month, and just hope that Kannel will 
get updated in time for Squeeze (the newer release includes utf8 
support!) :-/


Now that I (too early in the procedure) have mentioned this on -devel, 
let me add that I would appreciate to hear from anyone who have seen or 
heard of Paul Dwerryhouse the last couple of years, and perhaps knows of 
alternative means of reaching him.

Mmm, could this perhaps rather be just a patch added to the existing pth
package?  Else you'll have to share the Debian patches.

Is Paul Dwerryhouse MIA?

2010-01-17 Thread Jonas Smedegaard

Hi fellow developers,

I am worried if perhaps Paul Dwerryhouse  is 
Missing In Action.


He is maintainer of kannel which I have a special interest in.  For some 
time now I have had to use an unofficial packaging of a newer release 
due to the package in Debian being quite outdated (see bug#563661).  I 
recently packaged the kannel-sqlbox addon and plan to package mbuni - 
but find it silly to work on a "fork" of the (un?)maintained kannel.


I now checked 
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?maint=paul%40dwerryhouse.com.au 
- the packages are not in particularly bad state but only one of the 
bugreports listed there has ever had a single response - back in 2007 - 
from Paul Dwerryhouse.


What is the procedure for MIAs?  I seem to recall that db.debian.org 
have a last-seen hint but that is only for account holders in Debian 
which Paul Dwerryhouse seem not to be.


It seems that Paul maintains only the packages kannel and jwhois.

If it comes to that, I can offer to take over maintainance of kannel but 
would be happy to here from others interested in co-maintaining it (I 
would want to use Git and CDBS - so you are warned ahead if you have 
special preferences for or against those tools).  I have no interest in 
jwhois.

It offers the ability to allow developers to add JBIG2 image rendering
capabilities to their own applications, through a simple and easy to
use API. In its simplest form it allows developers to load in a JBIG2

This was in Debian a while ago but madduck canned it because (I believe)

It now works on 64-bit arches and with audacious.
