It should not start with a capital, not repeat the package name etc. Loki is a (the?) C++ library of designs, containing flexible implementations of common design patterns and idioms. I'd suggest a longer long description for the final version, because so far I don't know what it's about (I didn't want to cheat and look at the website). Regards, Laurent.
Bug#251229: ITP: libloki -- The Loki C++ patterns library
I apologise for not taking more time to write the initial ITP. Here's the full version: Package name: libloki Version : 2003.04.13 Upstream Author : Andrei Alexandrescu et al. [EMAIL PROTECTED] URL : http://www.sf.net/projects/loki-lib License : MIT Description : a C++ library of generic design patterns Loki is a (the?) C++ library of generic programming techniques, containing flexible implementations of common design patterns and idioms. It is an essential library for modern C++ programming and exposes many cool features of the language, declaring it as non-dead after all. The accompanying book, _Modern C++ Design_ (Alexandrescu, 2001) goes into depth on the design of the library, and while non-free and not necessary to harvest the libary's power, the book is a worthy acquisition for the serious C++ programmer. -- Please do not CC me when replying to lists; I read them! .''`. martin f. krafft [EMAIL PROTECTED] : :' :proud Debian developer, admin, and user `. `'` `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing a system Invalid/expired PGP subkeys?

This seems to imply that this declaration needs to be made; it doesn't. :) (The fact that this has different implementations for different compilers made me delete it pretty quickly, though. Gross.) -- Glenn Maynard

It is an essential library for modern C++ programming and exposes many cool features of the language, declaring it as non-dead after all. This seems to imply that this declaration needs to be made; it doesn't. :) How do they say? C++ : an octopus made by nailing extra legs onto a dog? Don't get me wrong, I am in love with C++. (The fact that this has different implementations for different compilers made me delete it pretty quickly, though. Gross.) Sometimes necessary. Also, the different implementations are for Windows GUI compilers. Loki is standard C++. It caters for those with disabled compilers. Honorable, I'd say. However, for us, it's not of any relevance. I'll consider just removing the other bits. -- Please do not CC me when replying to lists; I read them! .''`. martin f. krafft [EMAIL PROTECTED] : :' :proud Debian developer, admin, and user `. `'` `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing a system Invalid/expired PGP subkeys?
