  Description     : C Unit Test System

CUT is a simple, to-the-point unit testing system. It's different from other
unit test packages in that it follows the KISS principle. It's designed for
C testing, not designed to emulate SUnit.

Unlinke other test systems, this one comes with code generator, that will
find all test cases in a given set of sources and generate the test runner.
No additional library is needed, all functions are placed into the generated
source.

"cut" is a bad package name for this, because it's 1) very generic and 2) 
there is a standard UNIX cut command -- and this is not it.

I'd suggest cut-unittest or cut-testsystem or something like that.

Also, hopefully the command itself is not actually called "cut" because then 
this package would conflict with coreutils and thus be unusable.

Subject: WNPP bug closing

Date: Thu, 16 Oct 2008 11:59:47 -0600

Hello,

This is an automatic mail sent to close the RFP you have reported or 
are involved with.

Your RFP wnpp bug is being closed because of the following reasons:
- It is, as of today, older than 365 days.
- It hasn't had any activity recently.

As this is an automatic procedure, it could of course have something
wrong and probably it would be closing some bugs that are not 
intended by owners and submitters (like you) to be closed, for
example if the RFP is still of your interest, or there has been 
some kind of activity around it. In that case, please reopen the
bug, do it, DO IT NOW! (I don't want to be blamed because of
mass closing and not let people know that they can easily reopen
their bugs ;-).

To re-open it, you simply have to mail control@bugs.debian.org
with a body text like this:

 reopen 445960
 stop

Further comments on the work done in the bug sent to
445960@bugs.debian.org would be truly welcomed.
Anyway, if you have any kind of problems when dealing with
the BTS, feel free to contact me and I'd be more than happy to help
you on this: <damog@debian.org>.

A similar process is being applied to other kind of wnpp bugs.

Thanks for your cooperation,

 -- David Moreno Garza <damog@debian.org>.
