Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name : muchsync Version : 2 Upstream Author : David Mazieres <[email protected]> * URL : http://www.muchsync.org/ * License : GPL-2+ Programming Lang: C++ Description : synchronize maildirs and notmuch databases
Muchsync brings notmuch to all of your computers by synchronizing your mail messages and notmuch tags across machines. The protocol is heavily pipelined to work efficiently over high-latency networks such as mobile broadband. Muchsync supports arbitrary pairwise synchronization among replicas. A version-vector-based algorithm allows it to exchange only the minimum information necessary to bring replicas up to date regardless of which pairs have previously synchronized. ---- This package is pretty awesome, and is a perfect candidate for inclusion in Debian: * it requires compilation by hand, so is not easily distributed right now, which is a requirement as it needs to be installed on both ends * it depends on notmuch libraries, commonly packaged in Debian * it works! or at least i think it does: i'm testing it right now The thing compiles out of the box using autoconf tools and needs libxapian-dev and libnotmuch-dev. I'd be happy to co-maintain this but since there are already notmuch maintainers right now, i'd like them to take this over. Plus i'm lazy. Thanks!
