[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Scott Kitterman <scott@kitterman.com>


* Package name    : falcon
  Version         : 2.0.5
  Upstream Author : Dennis Kaarsemaker <dennis@ubuntu.com>
* URL             : http://falcon.kaarsemaker.net/
* License         : GPL v3
  Programming Lang: Python
  Description     : Repository manager for .deb packages

 Falcon is a tool that generates the repository meta-information (such as
 package listings and release files) in order to transform a set of packages
 into a proper repository.
 .
 Features
  * Every subdir of the pool is automatically a pocket
  * Support for metacomponents to make it easier to use
  * GPG signed Release files
  * Easy template based HTML output for repository indices
  * Morgueing of old packages
  * Easy support for complete and partial mirrors
  * Easy creation of .iso files
  * Easy import of sources from other debian repositories

Note: I'm aware another ITP was filed earlier today that indicated it would be
packaged as falcon.  That's a different (unrelated) program which I understand
will be packaged as falconpl.

I've held off on getting this uploaded because upstream is renaming it.

No.  Still waiting for upstream to decide on renaming the package.  With Lenny 
frozen, I'm not rushed about getting it into Sid under the current name and 
then having to deal with renaming.

If you're in a rush for the package, the Ubuntu package, if built on a Debian 
toolchain, will work just fine.  You can dget it from:

http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/f/falcon/falcon_2.0.5-0ubuntu2.dsc

and build it locally.

This package will not get it into Lenny, I think you should not worry about
Lenny freeze.

er.. The homepage http://falcon.kaarsemaker.net/ says "Forbidden - You
don't have permission to access / on this server."
I guess the new homepage is at launchpad: https://launchpad.net/falcon

Closing the ITP since the project is dead upstream.
