As my application to become a Debian developer is underway, let me state my intentions of packaging. You will find below short descriptions of the following packages: bibindex (take over), ibrazilian, recdescent, tipa (these four packages are done, ready for uploading), as well as plplot and iportuguese (these two not yet done).
Tell me if there are any objections/problems.

It is essentially a upstream upgrade + some clean up of the copyright file. _________________________________________________________________________ ibrazilian (http://www.ime.usp.br/~ueda/br.ispell/): Brazilian Portuguese dictionary for ispell. It will comply with Emacs Policy and address the issue raised by Marcelo Magallon in bug report #22293. GPL'd. _________________________________________________________________________ recdescent (on CPAN: modules/by-module/Parse/Parse-RecDescent.tar.gz): Perl module Parse::RecDescent for incrementally generating top-down recursive-descent text parsers from simple yacc-like grammar specifications. GPL'd. _________________________________________________________________________ tipa (ftp://tooyoo.L.u-tokyo.ac.jp/pub/TeX/tipa): A system for processing IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet) symbols in LaTeX. It's copyrighted by the author and there is no copying restrictions statement in the distribution. I am in contact with the author to fix this problem. _________________________________________________________________________ iportuguese (http://www.di.uminho.pt/~jj/pln/UMportugues.tgz) Portuguese (from Portugal) dictionary for ispell. It is not DFSG-compliant, as it has a statement: "Permission for non-profit use is hereby granted." in the README file. I will try to negotiate that with the author. _________________________________________________________________________ plplot (http://emma.la.asu.edu/plplot/): PLplot is a library of functions that are useful for making scientific plots. PLplot can be called from C, C++, FORTRAN, Python and Tcl. In the home page it is stated that "PLplot is in the public domain, so you can distribute it freely.", but actually the source distribution is LGPL'd. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
