Bug#223781: [RFA]: usemod-wiki -- Perl-based Wiki clone

[Benjamin Drieu]

Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I no longer use usemod-wiki and thus have no time to maintain it.
Package is in good shape, no serious bugs.  Very few work is needed to
maintain it as release cycle is quite long.

The only one todo item is to package version 1.0, which requires some
changes to the wiki database.  Peter Gervai <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> has
already made a package for this and is going to NMU usemod-wiki.  But
as he does not have time to adopt it, we need a new maintainer.

I can provide my CVS repository for usemod-wiki upon request.

Cheers,
Benjamin

As I'm using UseMod Wiki on a slew of Debian machines, I'd be more than
willing to continue maintaining usemod-wiki, but I'm no Debian Developer,
so I'd need a sponsor until I decide and manage to become one.

I use it on some systems too, so I would be pleased to be your sponsor.
Get in touch with me if you have packages ready for upload/inspection.

Are you going to do an NMU wrt usemod-wiki 1.0?  If yes, are you going to 
include an automatic upgrade mechanism for old singlebyte Wikis?  If yes, I'll 
wait for that NMU before starting my own packaging work.

Otherwise, would you mind sending me whatever you have packaged up for 1.0, so 
I can add an automatic upgrade mechanism (which I'd really like to include with 
the initial release of the 1.0 Debian package)?

I would like to avoid to adopt another package if possible, so if you want
to have it please be our guest.

Well no. But what's funny is that I just installed 1.0, changed it to utf8,
did what the readme told me and it worked...

Of course I don't mind, feel free to use it!

see: http://narya.grin.hu/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/trunk/usemod-wiki/ if you
wonder what did I change, or ftp://narya.grin.hu/pub/debian/ to get all the
stuff.
