Bug#855173: RFP: keepassxc -- Community fork of KeePassX, a free and open-source cross-platform password manager.

[Matt Jones]

I am not a maintainer or developer but an active user if debain and
keepass. I would be willing to take this in depending on timeframe. I have
time starting next week to devote to this. I have built packages in the
past so this is not a huge issue for me

Bug#845131: ITP: snap-telemetry-plugins -- Plugins for snap-telemetry to enhance and extend its capabilities

[matt jones]

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: matt jones <mattjo...@yieldbot.com>

* Package name: snap-telemetry-plugins-full
  Version : 1.0.0
  Upstream Author : Snap Community
* URL : http://snap-telemetry.io/
* License : Apache Version 2.0
  Programming Lang: Go
  Description : Plugins for snap-telemetry to enhance and extend its
capabilities

A group of plugins that are designed to be used wth the snap-telelmetry
package.
http://snap-telemetry.io/plugins.html

This package is dependent upon the ITP package snap-telemetry #844786
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=844786

For now I will be maintaining this myself but I welcome help. At some point I
may look at creating a team devoted to monitoring-telemetry that will maintain
these two packages for starters. This is depependent upon the time I have. At
the least I will maintain this package and the snap-telemetry package.

Bug#844786: Update package name

[Matt Jones]

The name snap is already taken so to avoid conflict and explicitly declare
the purpose of the package I suggest updating the package name to
snap-telemetry.

Bug#844786: ITP: snap -- The open telemetry framework

[matt jones]

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: matt jones <mattjo...@yieldbot.com>

* Package name: snap
  Version : 1.0.0
  Upstream Author : Intel
* URL : http://snap-telemetry.io/
* License : Apache License Version 2.0
  Programming Lang: Go
  Description : The open telemetry framework

Snap is an open telemetry framework designed to simplify the collection,
processing and publishing of system data through a single API. The goals of
this project are to:

- Empower systems to expose a consistent set of telemetry data
- Simplify telemetry ingestion across ubiquitous storage systems
- Allow flexible processing of telemetry data on agent (e.g. filtering and
decoration)
- Provide powerful clustered control of telemetry workflows across small or
large clusters

I would like to bring this in Debian proper as I work full-time with various
telemetry projects and would like better support for telemetry and monitoring
based off of it within Debain rather than relying on external sources or
builds.

At some point if my time allows I would like to create a new team around
monitoring telemetry to maintain this package and others that could be
associated with or provide additional functionality/capability. For now I will
be the maintainer of it.
