Package: wnpp Severity: normal I request an adopter for the ascii package as I am hardly using it anymore. The packaging is easy enough, so this will be easily suitable for any newcomer, with maybe a first task of slavaging the old VCS repository from anonscm.debian.org. However, there also isn't all too much upstream activity either over the last years ...
The package description is: The ascii utility provides easy conversion between various byte representations and the American Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII) character table. It knows about a wide variety of hex, binary, octal, Teletype mnemonic, ISO/ECMA code point, slang names, XML entity names, and other representations. Given any one on the command line, it will try to display all others. Called with no arguments it displays a handy small ASCII chart.
