Bug#867145: RFS: fancon/0.11.13

Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: wishlist

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "fancon"

* Package name: fancon
  Version : 0.11.13
  Upstream Author : Hayden Briese (haydenbri...@gmail.com)
* URL : https://github.com/hbriese/fancon
* License : Apache Version 2.0
  Section : utils

It builds those binary packages:

fancon - High performance, configurable system & NVIDIA fan control daemon

I wrote fancon as an alternative/replacement to the 'fancontrol' package.
Please keep in mind that I appreciate the work the lm-sensors team has
done on fancontrol, and wish to improve Linux fan control in part
through use of their library libsensors.

fancon provides several key improvements over fancontrol:
- Meaningful configuration - RPM & percentage speed control, not just
  PWM control as fancontrol provides (e.g. 5% or 600RPM vs 125PWM);
  note. PWM control is still supported.
- Simpler configuration - greater readability and ease of use (a serious
  issue for fancontrol, in my opinion).
- NVIDIA GPU fan control support; AMD support planned.
- Support for stopping fans completely, with guaranteed start (minimum PWM is
  almost always lower than the starting PWM meaning you can't go
  from 0RPM -> 400RPM, but instead from 0 -> 500 -> 400),
  not supported by fancontrol.
- User doesn't require knowledge detailed knowledge of each fan as
  they do with fancontrol due to 'meaningful configuration' support
  (120PWM does not result in the same RPM for even the same
  model of fan).
- No limit on the number of configuration points,
  where as fancontrol has a limit of 3.
- Support for profiles

Bug#861519: ITP: fancon -- High performance system & NVIDIA fan controller

* Package name: fancon
  Version : 0.11.2

* URL : https://github.com/hbriese/fancon
* License : Apache v2
  Programming Lang: C++
  Description : High performance, configurable system & NVIDIA fan
controller

fancon is a multi-threaded, high performance fan control daemon
written in C++ aimed at low overhead, and configurability.
It provides meaningful configuration through PWM, RPM or percentage
speed control.
Support for both system (lm-sensors supported) & NVIDIA fans.

I am the developer for fancon, and developed it as an
alternative/replacement to the `fancontrol` package.
Please keep in mind that I appreciate the work the lm-sensors team has
done on `fancontrol`, and wish to improve Linux fan control in part
through use of their library `libsensors`.

fancon provides several key improvements over `fancontrol`:
- meaningful configuration - RPM & percentage speed control, not just
  PWM control as `fancontrol` provides (e.g. 5% or 600RPM vs 125PWM);
  note. PWM control is still supported.
- simpler configuration - greater readability and ease of use (a serious
  issue for `fancontrol` in my opinion).
- support for stopping fans with gauranteed start (minimum PWM is
  almost always lower than the starting PWM meaning you can't go
  from 0RPM -> 400RPM, but instead from 0 -> 500 -> 400),
  not supported by `fancontrol`.
- user doesn't require knowledge detailed knowledge of each fan as
  they do with `fancontrol` due to 'meaningful configuration' support
  (120PWM does not result in the same RPM for even the same
  model of fan).
- no limit on the number of configuration points,
  where as `fancontrol` has a limit of 3.
- no limit on the number of configuration points,
  where as `fancontrol` has a limit of 3.

I will maintain the package, which will be very frictionless - as both a
debian user, and the package's developer.
I am looking looking for a sponsor; you may contact me via email for
more information. The package has been built and is working well, just
requring finishing details such as the man doc.

Thanks,
Hayden
