Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Elena ``of Valhalla'' <valhall...@trueelena.org>
* Package name : debdate Version : 0.20170714 Upstream Author : Elena Grandi <valha...@trueelena.org> * URL : http://git.trueelena.org/cgit.cgi/software/debdate/ * License : WTFPL Programming Lang: Python Description : Convert Gregorian dates to Debian Regnal dates Displays the Debian Regnal date of a given date, where the years are named after the current stable release. This is, admittely, a program or very minor importance, but also one that should take very little effort to develop and maintain. AFAIK there are many alternative programs to show dates the command line, but none of them use the *proper* calendar like this one does. Considering the topic, I believe that all of the potential users will appreciate having a package, even if running the program from source is easy. I've already checked that, by using data from distro-info-data, it will give the right answers even on the .0 release of a new stable, with no additional effort from myself nor the project. I plan to maintain this package in collab-maint, with the aim to move it to PAPT as soon as the svn -> git migration is done. I will need a sponsor for the first upload(s), but I'm a DM and can receive upload permission for the (sporadical) updates.
