I have re-uploaded the package to mentors, closing ITP: #868886, 
published my packaging history, added the Vcs fields to the control file 
and added a patch for Plasma desktops.

Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: wishlist

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "parlatype"

* Package name: parlatype
  Version : 1.5.1-1
  Upstream Author : Gabor Karsay 
* URL : http://gkarsay.github.io/parlatype/
* License : GPL-3
  Section : gnome

It builds those binary packages:

gir1.2-parlatype-1.0 - Library for Parlatype - gir bindings
libparlatype-dev - Library for Parlatype - development version
libparlatype-doc - Documentation files for the Parlatype library
libparlatype1 - Library for Parlatype - runtime version
parlatype  - Minimal audio player for manual speech transcription
parlatype-libreoffice-helpers - Set of macros for LibreOffice

I am also the upstream author. The first public release was in January 
2016, the program is in a good state, is already translated in a few 
languages and fills a gap for an easy to use transcription utility 
(manual transcription). I'm not aware of another program in Debian for 
GNOME, targeting transcriptions and also offering a waveform.


I was packaging it already for a time for Ubuntu. The package was built 
with pbuilder in a sid chroot. There is one lintian warning that I don't 
know what to do with: hardening-no-fortify-functions. I think the 
compiler flags are set right, but I don't know if I should override it.


There's also one thing unclear to me about the procedure: Is this 
sponsorship request enough or should I file a WNPP bug, too?


Thank you
Gabor Karsay
