Bug#853048: O: socnetv -- social network analysis and visualisation application

2017-01-29 Thread Serafeim Zanikolas
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I intend to orphan the socnetv package.

The socnetv package has not been updated by its nominal maintainer in more
than three years, during which time there have been two NMUs (and I'm about to
make a third one).

The package description is:
 SocNetV is a graphical application designed to be an easy tool for Social
 Networks Analysis and Visualisation (not to be confused with social
 networking, as in online communities). With it, one can load and visualise
 networks of various formats (GraphViz, Adjacency, Pajek, etc), and/or visually
 create and modify a network in a point and click fashion.
 .
 The program can also compute network statistics and properties (such as
 distances, centralities, diameter) and apply some layout algorithms for more
 meaningful visualisation of your networks. Furthermore, socnetv can create
 simple random networks (lattice, same degree, etc).

Package: wnpp

I request an adopter for the nodebox-web package.

I packaged it several years ago because it was needed for another package, one
that is not in the Debian archive anymore. nodebox-web has low popcon and no
rdepends, so adopt it only if you (plan to) use it yourself.

I intend to request its removal from the archive if nobody steps up within a
few weeks.

 Nodebox Web is a collection of Python modules to get content from the web.
 One can query Yahoo! and Google for links, images, news and spelling
 suggestions, read RSS and Atom newsfeeds, retrieve articles from Wikipedia,
 collect quality images from morgueFile or Flickr, browse through HTML
 documents, clean up HTML, validate URLs, and create GIF images from math
 equations using mimeTeX.
 .
 The library uses a caching mechanism that stores things you download from the
 web, so they can be retrieved faster the next time. Many of the services also
 work asynchronously.

Bug#719792: RFA: reconf-inetd & DEP9 -- maintainer script for programmatic updates of inetd.conf

2013-08-15 Thread Serafeim Zanikolas
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I request an adopter for the reconf-inetd package.

The package description is:
 reconf-inetd is a dpkg-trigger script that updates the configuration of the
 internet superserver. It is a replacement for update-inetd, as per DEP9.
 .
 If the above does not mean anything to you, then you most certainly do not
 need this package.


I do not have the time to be the sole driver of DEP9, and its implementation,
reconf-inetd. reconf-inetd is pretty much complete, it works, and it comes
with dozens of system tests. Remaining work includes:

- port to python 3
- use of a Debian python helper to manage byte-compilation
- file bug reports to the reverse dependencies of update-inetd to migrate to
  reconf-inetd, as described in DEP9 (which also describes how to prepare
  patches)

The last item is a lot of work, and will require interacting with lots of
other maintainers via the BTS. The adopter must know python (reconf-inetd is a
native package), have packaging experience, and lots of motivation.

I'm not sure anymore whether DEP9 (ie. replacing update-inetd with
reconf-inetd) is worthwhile, because inetd (which is what update/reconf-inetd
configure) will eventually be deprecated by systemd and upstart. Having said
that, inetd is unlikely to vanish anytime now, and in the meantime
update-inetd is buggy and has 120k installations.

I'll be around to sponsor (if necessary) & answer questions, but will
otherwise not be actively involved.

Bug#467584: RFA: modconf -- Device Driver Configuration

2009-08-06 Thread Serafeim Zanikolas
Hi Frank,

I'm considering to adopt modconf, and rewrite it from scratch in python.
Before I commit, I'd like a reality check as to the expected functionality:

- during package build, generate one or more files about module names and
  descriptions, and organise that according to the kernel source hierarchy
- during runtime, use a dialog system that allows the user to browse and load
  modules, using the above-described file

The input for the first step is by now consistently organised in the kernel's
Kconfig and Makefiles, so it should be pretty straightforward. The second,
should also be straightforward given a decent dialog system, with the only
caveat being that one has to doublecheck which subset of all modules have
actually been compiled as such for the running kernel.

What about module dependencies? Would it be okay to bypass that by using
modprobe instead of insmod?

Any issues I should have in mind for d-installer use cases? eg, modules living
somewhere else than /lib/modules/`uname -r`

Please add anything else I might be missing.

Thanks,
Serafeim

I've prepared a new package with the latest upstream and a couple of fixes,
including the tempfile issue.

http://www.cs.man.ac.uk/~zanikols/tmp/debian/pdfshuffler_0.4.1-1.dsc
http://www.cs.man.ac.uk/~zanikols/tmp/debian/pdfshuffler_0.3.1-1.dsc (for ref)

I'm attaching the patches for Konstantinos's convenience (I've contacted him
previously about them).

I'll commit to the python-apps svn once I know that it's been uploaded.

Cheers,
Serafeim

Hi Savvas,

The package is ready but my sponsor has been busy. Also, it appears that
pdfshuffler creates predictably-named temporary files, which might be a
blocker (I've notified upstream, but it's not fixed yet).

Cheers,
Serafeim

A few errors in the last paragraph. Here's a suggestion:

 It provides a single API for accessing various module features, such as
 dependencies, regardless of the method used by the module to describe them.

Also, the short description must start with a lower-case letter.

Cheers,
Serafeim

Bug#490707: ITP: socnetv -- social network analysis and visualisation application

2008-07-13 Thread Serafeim Zanikolas
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Serafeim Zanikolas <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

* Package name: socnetv
  Version : 0.44
  Upstream Author : Dimitris Kalamaras <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* URL : http://socnetv.sf.net
* License : GPL
  Programming Lang: C++
  Description : social network analysis and visualisation application

 SocNetV is a graphical application designed to be an easy tool for Social
 Networks Analysis and Visualisation (not to be confused with social
 networking, as in online communities). With it, you can load and visualise
 networks of various formats (GraphViz,Adjacency, Pajek, etc), and/or visually
 create and modify a network using your mouse.
 .
 The program can also compute network statistics and properties, such as
 distances, centralities, diameter etc, and apply some layout algorithms for
 more meaningful visualisation of your networks. Furthermore, it can create
 simple random networks (lattice, same degree, etc).

socnetv is nowhere near complete but with active upstream, so I'll be
packaging this for experimental.

Bug#411790: testing driver

2008-05-11 Thread Serafeim Zanikolas
Hi,

I have an rt card (lspci output below) and I'm happy to help out with testing
the legacy drivers.

03:00.0 Network controller: RaLink RT2500 802.11g Cardbus/mini-PCI (rev 01)

I currently use the following modules with the standard 2.6.24-1-686, and I
can confirm that they're quite immature (it takes a few tricks to force the
card to associate with the access point, and the transfer speed varies
significantly).

rt2500pci
rt2x00pci
rt2x00lib

Cheers,
Serafeim

Bug#473039: ITP: python-nodebox-web -- collection of web-related Python modules

2008-03-27 Thread Serafeim Zanikolas
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Serafeim Zanikolas <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

* Package name: python-nodebox-web
  Version : 1.9.2
  Upstream Author : Tom De Smedt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* URL : http://nodebox.net/code/index.php/Web/
* License : GPL
  Programming Lang: Python
  Description : collection of web-related Python modules

 Offers a collection of Python modules to retrieve content from the Internet.
 You can use the library to query Yahoo! for links, images, news and spelling
 suggestions, to read RSS and Atom newsfeeds, to retrieve articles from
 Wikipedia, to collect quality images from morgueFile or Flickr, to get color
 themes from kuler or Colr, to browse through HTML documents, to clean up
 HTML, to validate URLs, to create GIF images from math equations using
 mimeTeX, to get ironic word definitions from Urban Dictionary.
 .
 The library uses a caching mechanism that stores things you download from the
 web, so they can be retrieved faster the next time. Many of the services also
 work asynchronously.

 This package is required by indywiki (see ITP #473038).

Bug#473038: ITP: indywiki -- visual Wikipedia browser

2008-03-27 Thread Serafeim Zanikolas
Package: wnpp

* Package name: indywiki

    Serafeim Zanikolas <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* URL : http://indywiki.sf.net/
* License : GPL
  Programming Lang: Python
  Description : visual Wikipedia browser

 Indywiki provides a visually-driven and intuitive way of browsing Wikipedia.
 Indywiki's window is split in two parts, one with images related to the
 current topic, and another with text and links from the current page.
 Images are selected from the current page, the pages pointed to by the
 current one (forward links), and the pages that point to the current one
 (back-links). The text of the current page is presented one paragraph at a
 time, and the page's links are shown in a single list.
 .
 In Indywiki, one browses wikipedia by selecting either text links or images
 (the latter leads to the wiki page that contains the selected image).
 .
 Indywiki is not recommended for use with low-speed Internet connections, as
 it downloads many images per page.
