Work-Needing and Prospective Packages for Debian GNU/Linux [EMAIL PROTECTED] $Id: prospective-packages.html,v 1.9 1998/04/07 21:36:24 johnie Exp $ This document is intended to identify areas that need your contributions. It provides information that hopefully changes quite often, so it supplements the regular Debian Developer documentation: [1]http://www.debian.org/developers_corner.html. This document provides the current list of packages which are either: * orphaned, * withdrawn from the unstable distribution, * maintained but its developer would like to find a new person, * currently being worked on to include in the distribution, and * good ideas -- they would be nice to have, but no one is yet working on them. New versions of this document will be available via FTP and HTTP: * [2]http://www.debian.org/doc/prospective-packages.html * [3]ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/doc/package-developer/prospective-p ackages.txt * [4]ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/doc/package-developer/prospective-p ackages.html Please send additions, corrections, suggestions and wishes to the WNPP maintainer ([EMAIL PROTECTED]). Please mention which version of this document your comments refer. Try to change the subject of your mail to reflect the packages you're talking about, it makes it easier for to sort out all "Re: Work-Needing and Prospective Packages" emails. A suggested subject line reads "WNPP: removing foopackage" or "WNPP: working on barpackage". Thanks. _________________________________________________________________ Recent Changes Since version 1998/03/30

To correct the developer recorded for a package, inform the override file maintainer ([EMAIL PROTECTED]).

If you want to create one of these packages, or any Debian package, please send an e-mail with an "Intent to create ..." subject line to the Debian development list (debian-devel@lists.debian.org). If you are not already a developer, instructions on joining the Debian Project are in the "Developers Corner" of the Debian website. Programming and development * The [20]Java Development Environment wrapper for xemacs. * The [21]Linux BLAS, FFTs, general utilities and libraries, and library support for Extended Precision Arithmetic * ccmalloc -- memory profiler and malloc debugger * ECoLisp -- a Common Lisp compiler that produces faster code but isn't as widely used as GCL * CLiCC -- Common Lisp compiler that generates stand-alone apps (rather large ones, though) * CLX -- Common Lisp Xlib implementation * PCL -- Portable Common Loops for GCL * Cross-compilation environments for alpha, m68k, SPARC * [22]ACE -- (a free C++ library) * [23]GNU Nana -- improved support for assertions and logging in C and C++. * [24]qddb -- a relational database.

X11 * The LGPL-ed GUI library [27]fltk which is supposed to be compatible with (non-free) XForms toolkit. Use of XForms is the sole reason that several useful packages like lyx are in contrib rather than main. * Andrew * [28]mergemem * grok -- database with many functions * xidle * [29]Express, the GTK web browser for GNOME. Networking and Communication * ftptool * [30]Speakerphone/Answering Machine for USR and Rockwell Modems * [31]SSL FTP and FTPD -- If possible, the SSL functionality for the daemon should be ported to the one in netstd, as that may contain security fixes not in SSL ftpd. * [32]Telnet98, with 128-bit encryption (non-us). * [33]pathchar, a device for measuring bandwidth of remote pipes. * The [34]coda filesystem tools. Text utilities * HTML editors (tkHTML, auc-html.el) * [35]Virtual Paper * [36]pdftex -- a version of TeX/LaTeX which directly generates PDF. Misc * [37]sfio -- C library stdio replacement * [38]Artificial Life Programs * [39]Acmaint -- user administration tool * [40]hpack -- non-us archiver * [41]rar -- shareware archiver * The operator shell ( [42]http://www.engarde.com/~mcn/osh.html). * The transparent cryptographic filesystem ([43]http://tcfs.dia.unisa.it/). * The CODA filesystem ([44]http://www.coda.cs.cmu.edu/). * Secure remote password ([45]http://srp.stanford.edu/srp/). _________________________________________________________________ Programs that someone should write This section contains suggestions/wishes for programs. There is no known implementation of such a program for Linux. * amspell (ms-dos) -like spell checker, i.e. a spell checker that checks the complete text first, searching for alternatives (on the fly) and asking for user action at the very end of the checking process. This saves much time on low memory machines. _________________________________________________________________ Packages that cant be packaged * HotJava -- the license prohibits redistribution of any kind. _________________________________________________________________ Historical Changes Since version 1998/03/24 Packages needing a new maintainer * The xftp and icmake packages are now orphaned. * The doc-linux suite of HOWTO packages and the xlockmore packages are offered by Dirk Eddelbuettel ([EMAIL PROTECTED]). * The nn newsreader is offered by Mike Coleman ([EMAIL PROTECTED]). * A Z80 emulator, xzx, is offered by Juan Cespedes ([EMAIL PROTECTED]).
