Bug#463584: ITP: rubyripper -- an open-source secure ripper for Linux

2008-02-01 Thread Carlos Laviola
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Carlos Laviola <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

* Package name: rubyripper
  Version : 0.5.0
  Upstream Author : Bouke Woudstra <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* URL : http://code.google.com/p/rubyripper/
* License : GPL v3
  Programming Lang: Ruby
  Description : an open-source secure audio ripper

Rubyripper uses cdparanoia in a sophisticated way to make sure that
a CD rip is done successfully and accurately. Through multiple rips
and byte comparison, rubyripper aims to correct and inform the user
about any differences that would otherwise go unnoticed. It is very
similar to and inspired by EAC.

  Version : 1.2p1
  Upstream Author : J. F. Coulon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* URL : http://dvd95.sourceforge.net/
* License : GPL
  Programming Lang: C
  Description : DVD9 to DVD5 converter

  dvd95 is a GNOME application to convert DVD9 to DVD5 (4.7GB).

  * Needs no additional packages - embedded versions of vamps and
dvdauthor are used, to be as fast as possible.
  * Interface is pretty simple to use.
  * Shrinking factor may be computed for best results, or an adaptive
compression ratio method may be used.
  * DVDs can be converted to file trees or ISOs.
  * The end result can be viewed and burned with regular third party
players and DVD recording software.

  * DVD95 supports two copy modes:
  - Without menus, one video title set, multiple audio tracks and subtitles.

Bug#275779: RFA: fpc -- Free Pascal -- Compiler

2004-10-10 Thread Carlos Laviola
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I request an adopter for the fpc package.
I'd prefer that Peter Vreman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, who's the Free
Pascal Project's main man on Debian packaging and who has provided me
with most of the infrastructure needed to build FPC on Debian, take over
this package.  Peter, if you're interested, I'd be glad to sponsor you
while I'm a developer.

The package's description is:
 The Free Pascal Compiler is a Turbo Pascal 7.0 and Delphi compatible 32-bit
 Pascal Compiler. It comes with a fully compatible TP 7.0 runtime library.
 Some extensions are added to the language, like function overloading. Shared
 libraries can be linked and created. Basic Delphi support is already
 implemented (classes, exceptions, ansistrings). This package contains the
 command line compiler. You need at least the RTL package before you can start
 compiling anything.

I request an adopter for the bplay package.

The package description is:
 The bplay package provides a simple command-line utility for playing
 and recording audio files in raw sample, VOC and WAV formats.

 To use this program you need a soundcard of some kind and the
 appropriate driver configured into your kernel.

 When run the program creates two processes which share a memory
 buffer.  It does reading/writing on the disk and the sound device
 simultaneously, in order to be less liable to `pause' because the
 disk is too slow or too busy.

Well, it seems to me like you're implying there would be
[EMAIL PROTECTED] that would be so lame that they would not know the
difference between criticizing what can be very easily criticized (i.e., this
infamous IIS server) and directly attacking someone like a script kiddie
would do.  Frankly, I expect more of my fellow developers, and I think
you should, too.

Also, it is amazing that pretty much no one else has showed disapproval
of this.  Come on, people, there is no way in the world you can convince
yourselves logically that it is okay to host a registration form in an
IIS server because "we" were given money.  I believe principles are more
important than money.

Just my $0.02.

Are you sure you want to do this?  What about all those people who
filter with spambouncer, but are dial-up users?  You need to either
have your job run when a PPP link is up, or ask the user if he's on a
LAN/has direct access to the Internet before doing this.

It isn't really a program, just a collection of filters, which are
non-binary (thus, you'll only need to have a package which is
Architecture: all).  I'd say that if you rely on a method to update
your spambouncer definitions that ensures you that /usr is mounted,
you'd have no problem putting it on /usr/share/spambouncer/ like
procmail-lib does.

That's just my opinion, though, and I might be wrong :-)

They haven't been dropped, your MUA is ignoring them. Because of this

I hope that's a joke, because, based _solely_ on that comparison table, the
reason one should use snarf over wget is because it has a cool progressbar. I'd
rather have the recursive download support that wget has and snarf lacks.. I'll
take a look at snarf, anyway, it might be nicer than wget here and there.

Register your project at http://sourceforge.net, and you'll get all the nice
stuff they give, like CVS access, shell access (to a compile farm, even), a
pretty decent storage space, that can get bigger if you really need it (100mb+,
iirc), and freedom to create mailing lists for your project. But, if you don't
need all that stuff, I think you can ask the listmaster to create a list for
you right under lists.debian.org, since some projects (like the V C++ GUI
Framework) are using the server for their own lists. And, since you're from
debian and all that, it makes it much easier. I don't remember the exact
procedure to request a new list, hopefully someone will step in and give the
tip.

  Sorry its taken so long to get back to you, but you caught me right

I currently, and intentionally, have no copyright over the fortunes
collection.  I encourage everyone to copy it and use it freely, and as
far as your system goes, you're most certainly welcome to it.

As for the constituent quotes, my understanding is that they are either
so old that they are public domain, or else the relatively brief quoting
falls under the "fair use" doctrine.  Plus, the fact that it has never
been sold nor any money exchanged for it, means that I've never had any
problems with it.  Some people have suggested that it be compiled into
a real book, as Chaz Bufe once did with many quotes.  I'm not sure that
I could do that with the collection as-is- I probably would need to get
permission for many recent quotes, which is why I've decided to keep it
in freely-distributed electronic form.

I'm not sure if this would impact the way that you would package it in
your system- thanks for the URL on the GNU license, and I'll take a look
at it and see how it can be applied.  If it needs a specific copyright
statement to be included, I probably will adopt something like that,
and I'll let you know as soon as I've officially applied whatever it needs
to the file.

Since its a Linux system, you might also want to talk with Ed Gauci 
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> who has developed a whole suite of utilities for 
working with my particular fortune file, including a "quote of the day" 
generator, and several web-based utilities for extracting quotes.  You
might want to include those utilities with it, and Ed probably wouldn't
mind packaging it all together.

>
>I'd also like to thank you for the great job - the fortunes you

Thanks!  It was originally intended as just a collection of neat 
quotes to use in .signature files, but its grown into a lot more than
just that over the years.

Bug#94999: ITP: mp3kult -- Organizes your MP3 collection in a MySQL database

Mp3Kult is a KDE2 application that helps you organize your MP3 collections in
a MySQL database. It can read MP3 tag and song informations (length, bit
rate, sample rate etc.), make playlists, play songs with an external player
like xmms and gqmpeg, perform basic and advanced searches for songs in the
database, and make copies of playlists on your hard disk, in order to play
the songs without inserting cdroms.

Mp3Kult can scan directories recursively, looking for MP3s and
automatically mount, umount and eject cdroms before and after the job.
