Heh, I have been trying to submit as well, but no one is at the
helm.  Even those that are valid submitters seem to not paying
much attention to their mailboxes these days.

I have several packages to submit, but no where to send them...  :(

Subject: [Cooker] I've made sdd SRPMs - where / how / to whom to upload
?



  Hi,

  I've made "sdd" SRPMs: one older, one newer. The newer seems pretty 
stable, so it might be enough to stick that one into contribs.

  Somebody please let me know where / how / to whom to upload it, so it 
gets into contribs, or, better, please take it (recompile) and put it 
where it should be, and just let me know, so I can use the diskspace on 
the website again.

 The two packages can be found at:

 http://Honza.Vicherek.com/sdd-1.31-1.src.rpm
 http://Honza.Vicherek.com/sdd-1.22-2.src.rpm

  Thanks,

       John

Summary     : dd replacement
Description :
Sdd is a replacement for a program called 'dd'.
Sdd is much faster than dd in cases where input block size (ibs) is not
equal to the output block size (obs).

Sdd does not have some of the design bugs of dd that cause the following
command to fail:
dd if=/dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s2 bs=126k | rsh otherhost 'dd ibs=4k obs=126k
of=/dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s2'

The output disk will not be equal to the input disk because the dd
command
on 'otherhost' will read fragments of 'ibs' and fill them up to 4kB.
