Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: wishlist

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my new package "prime-phylo"

* Package name    : prime-phylo
  Version         : 1.0.10-1
  Upstream Author : Lars Arvestad<[email protected]>, Bengt
Sennblad<[email protected]> and others
* URL             : http://prime.sbc.su.se
* License         : GPL-3
  Programming Lang: C++
  Section         : science

It builds the binary package:

  prime-phylo - bayesian estimation of gene trees taking the species
tree into account

To access further information about this package, please visit the
following URL:

http://mentors.debian.net/package/prime-phylo


Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command:

  dget -x 
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/p/prime-phylo/prime-phylo_1.0.10-1.dsc

The URL for the upstream project homepage is: http://prime.sbc.su.se

The upstream name PrIME is an acronym for Probabilistic Integrated
Models of Evolution.
The package supports inference of evolutionary parameters in a
Bayesian framework using
Markov chain Monte Carlo simulation. A distinguishing feature of PrIME
is that the species
tree is taken into account when analyzing gene trees.

A scientific description of PrIME has been published in this scientific paper:
  Åkerborg, Ö., Sennblad, B., Arvestad, L., & Lagergren, J. (2009).
  Simultaneous Bayesian gene tree reconstruction and reconciliation analysis.
  Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 106(14), 5714-5719.
  doi:10.1073/pnas.0806251106

There are some existing Debian packages that provide some of the
functionality also given by prime-phylo:

  fastdnaml
  fasttree
  phyml
  raxml
  tree-puzzle

but none provide the same functionality.

I previously sent an ITP bug report for prime-phylo
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=684039

Should I have replied to that bug report instead of sending this one?
(This is my first package submission)

Cheers,
Erik Sjölund
