Thanks, for your explanations, but i think that the most important issue here
is the license.
You'd better keep in touch with upstream author and try to convice him to relax 
the
license terms to let us redistribute 'email' at least in non-free section. The
best would be to make him change the license up to a DFSG compliant license.

This bug should be tagged 'wontfix' untill license issue will be resolved.

There is no need to be a Debian Developer to work with phpgroupware. Adrian De
Leon and me agreed to let him work on the packages and me to check/upload his
work. Please keep in touch with him as well if you want to join.

 Are you willing to sponsor?

I'm sorry but i've no time to sponsor other people. I'm already sponsoring
other friends and my time still lacks.

The only thing i can do is to suggest you to contact
phpgroupware-developers-at-gnu.org to join the development and
debian-{devel,mentors,newmaint} to get help being sponsored.

ciao,

Bug#180993: Sponsoring Adrian De Leon

2003-02-19 Thread Luca - De Whiskey's - De Vitis
Hi all,

Adrian De Leon agreed to work on phpgroupware packages.
I'll sponsor his work helping him as i can.
BTW, I'll not close this bug untill the situation will be stable.

If any of you reading this report is willing to help, please get in touch with
either Adrian or me: phpGroupWare has a quite large set of packages, and there
is enough work for more developers.

thanks,

Package: wnpp
Version: unavailable; reported 2003-02-14
Severity: normal

I'm hereby announcing that i intend to orphan the phpgroupware group of
Debian packages. I'm sorry if i did not maintained it in the best way
lately, but i've already moved to other tools, and i neither use it any
longer, nor i've enough time to handle it proprely. Please let me know
if any of you intend to step in: i'll gladly help any one of the
phpgroupware team willing to join Debian, or any other Debian Developer
willing to take it up for adoption.

phpgroupware was the package with which i joined Debian: that's why i
would like to choose the one to which i'll leave it.

Please, mail me privately.

 How does this compare to the TAL-based template stuff that ZOPE uses?
 (Ie see http://www.zope.org/Members/4am/ZPT). I would prefer to see that
 packaged instead.

 It is not a Zope product nor is it designed exclusively to run inside
 of Zope, but if you have a Zope checkout that includes
 Products/ParsedXML, its Expat parser will be used.

Is quite old but i'll update asap.

Bug#151412: RFP: vmailmgr -- Powerful qmail addon package for virtual domain email.

2002-06-29 Thread Luca - De Whiskey's - De Vitis
Package: wnpp
Version: N/A; reported 2002-06-30
Severity: wishlist

  Upstream Author : Bruce Guenter [EMAIL PROTECTED]

  Description : Powerful qmail addon package for virtual domain email.

Vmailmgr provides a virtualizing password-checking interface to
qmail-pop3d, a delivery agent to automatically deliver mail within a
virtual domain, and a set of tools to manage such a domain. It also has
Courier IMAP support. It uses one uid per domain, and this user can
fully administer the domain without needing suid access rights. Making
it work is as easy as adding a line in qmail's virtualdomains file, and
running a few commands.

I need this package for a phpgroupware module.

* URL : Not yet available.
* License : GPL
  Description : The phpGroupWare packaging utilities.

 This package provides some facilities to checkout the phpGroupWare source from
 the cvs repository and build as many packages formats as possible.
 Formats includes:

  - tar.gz: Gzip compressed tar archive.
  - tar.bz2:Bzip2 compressed tar archive.
  - deb:Dpkg package format (i.e. Debian).
  - rpm:[1] RPM package format (i.e. RedHat).
  - slp:[1] SLP package format (i.e. Stampede).
  - tgz:[1] TGZ package format (i.e. Slackware).

  Other packages formats available:

  - core:   Not really a format: build core-$(VERSION).tar.gz and
core-$(VERSION).tar.bz2
  - orig.tar.gz:Gzip Compressed archive used to build official Debian
packages.
  - pkg:[1] Solaris package format. Cannot build this one since
we miss Solaris specific tools (pkginfo, pkgtrans). I've
included it anyway: just incase...

  [1] Package is of an alien type. This means there is no one who care the
  building of this package format. To build it I use the alien(1) command.

I need to inject the deian directory inside each module first.
Q: Is there a way to document perl code using something like pod, whith
internationalizzation support?

  Version : 5.3.19
  Upstream Author : Too many to list here.
* URL : http://www.coda.cs.cmu.edu
* License : GPL
  Description : The Coda advanced networked filesystem.

(Quoted from the site)

Coda is a distributed filesystem with its origin in AFS2. It has many
features that are very desirable for network filesystems. Currently,
Coda has several features not found elsewhere.

1. disconnected operation for mobile computing
2. is freely available under a liberal license
3. high performance through client side persistent caching
4. server replication
5. security model for authentication, encryption and access control
6. continued operation during partial network failures in server network
7. network bandwith adaptation
8. good scalability
9. well defined semantics of sharing, even in the presence of network
   failures

I've been working on the coda packages for a while, after i got in touch with
Jan Harkes (the original packages author); i've already packaged the library
neede by coda:
 o liblwp-dev
 o liblwp2
 o librpc2-dev
 o librpc2-bin
 o librpc23
 o librvm-dev
 o librvm1
 o librvm-bin
I want to recheck them before upload.

I'm having some trouble (to say it all, they are only a lot of minor issues)
with the coda package it self:
 o coda-common
 o coda-client
 o coda-server
 o coda-update
 o coda-backup

I guess it will take some time.
Help in packaging is wellcome.
