retitle 724738 ITP: sflowtool -- Command line utility for decoding and analyzing sflow data owner 724738 ! thanks
I made package this back at the time I opened the ITP, and uploaded to mentors, and asked on DD mailinglist for mentoring. After more than a year though (and bumping my packaging to follow three upstream version-bumps, adding init-scripts for autostarting fanout processes as daemons, and more than 10 of my patches making their way into upstream itself) it then got auto-deleted off the mentors server. I still maintain the packaging for my own purposes now (less frequently though), but I'll wait until a DD shows at least some interest in helping to proceed before I re-upload it. I suspect most were scared off by the present licensing, but I had been in discussion with the upstream dev, and he was receptive to the idea of pitching to the appropriate decision-makers about relicensing if it would get the package into Debian. They already did that for another package of theirs when they put it on Sourceforge - "host-sflow". They triple-licensed it under a choice of their own non-free Sflow License, the Adaptive Public License 1.0 and the Sun Industry Standards Source License 1.1. As a side-point, I don't think either of those two free licenses have been DFSG-approved though... -- Rowan Thorpe PGP fingerprint: BB0A 0787 C0EE BDD8 7F97 3D30 49F2 13A5 265D CCBD ---- "There is a great difference between worry and concern.
