Package: wnpp Severity: normal I hereby propose the eagle-adsl package for adoption. I used to have an interest in bringing it to a working state, but I have no real incentive to keep improving it, as it now works for me (twenty-four hours a day, I might add). I also suffer from lack of time to properly maintain it.
Current pending tasks: - add hotplug support for a few variants of the modem with different USB vendor/product IDs; - add support for changing the ATM VPIs/VCIs, depending on the configuration (normal line, "unbundled" line, various ADSL providers); - track upstream development (including support for the 2.6 kernels, currently under developmet); - coordinate with pppd maintainer(s) to de-duplicate the pppoa daemon; - sort out the pppoa/pppoe mess (in which I have absolutely no clue); - maybe provide a set of precompiled kernel modules for the various kernel-image-* packages available. Ideal candidate would speak French since upstream team is French, but I believe they also speak English. Obviously should have an ADSL modem based on the Eagle chipset and an appropriate Internet provider. If you're interested, I have a couple of e-mails I can resend you with appropriate info for some of the pending tasks. I could also act as a sponsor if you need one. Please contact me :-) If you're French: "unbundled line" is "ligne dégroupée". -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux mirexpress 2.4.22 #1 dim oct 26 14:13:56 CET 2003 i686 Locale: LANG=fr_FR.ISO-8859-1, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.ISO-8859-1
