Package: wnpp Severity: normal I intend to orphan the soci package. There was a chance that Bradley Smith was going to take on the package and he has uploaded an updated version to experimental. However, neither Bradley nor myself are using soci directly anymore, so I'm orphaning the package.
The package description is: Database access library for C++ that makes the illusion of embedding SQL queries in the regular C++ code, staying entirely within Standard C++. . This package provides the shared library. Other packages: Package: soci Binary: libsoci-core-gcc, libsoci-core-gcc-dev, libsoci-core-gcc-dbg, libsoci-mysql-gcc, libsoci-sqlite3-gcc, libsoci-postgresql-gcc Homepage: http://soci.sourceforge.net/ Vcs-Browser: http://soci.cvs.sourceforge.net/soci/ Vcs-Cvs: :pserver:[email protected]:/cvsroot/soci soci If the package remains orphaned at the end of this month (March 09), I'll migrate it to Maintainer: QA. If it is still orphaned at the start of the Squeeze release freeze, I'll seek removal from Debian.
