Hello dear members of the pkg-multimedia team, As a new member of this team, I would like to find a sponsor for the scenic package. I use cdbs, but I am ready to switch to debhelper 7 if we fix some issues I had with it. (we need to build it with --enable-mt)
I'm much active on the IRC. a ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Alexandre Quessy <alexan...@quessy.net> Date: 2010/6/2 Subject: RFS: Scenic 0.6.0 - Telepresence software for live performances and installations To: debian-ment...@lists.debian.org Dear mentors, I am looking for a sponsor for my package "scenic". I would like this package to be maintained by the pkg-multimedia team. * Package name : scenic Version : 0.6.0-1 Upstream Authors: Tristan Matthews <tris...@sat.qc.ca> Alexandre Quessy <alexan...@quessy.net> Simon Piette <sim...@sat.qc.ca> Philippe Chevry <pche...@sat.qc.ca> Koya Charles <koya.char...@gmail.com> Antoine Collet <antoine.col...@gmail.com> Sylvain Cormier <studiozod...@yahoo.ca> Etienne Desautels <etie...@teknozen.net> Hugo Boyer <ugoma...@gmail.com> * URL : http://svn.sat.qc.ca/trac/scenic * License : GPL v2 or later Copyright holder: Society for Arts and Technology Section : net It builds these binary packages: scenic - Telepresence software for live performances and installations Scenic is a free software suite for streaming audio, video and MIDI between live events. It was created at the Society for Arts and Technology (SAT) to give artists a powerful tool for telepresence in live arts contexts and new media installations. The streaming is done over RTP with the GStreamer multimedia framework. Users can also choose low-bandwidth or high-quality codecs, depending on what is available on their system. It offers up to as many audio channels as your audio device supports. Scenic consists in a desktop application and several command-line utilities: * scenic: Desktop application to stream audio, video and MIDI over RTP * milhouse: Streams audio and video over RTP * midistream: Streams MIDI notes and controls over RTP * dc-ctl: Controls connected DC IEEE 1394 cameras * firereset: Resets a IEEE 1394 bus to help in case of problems * jack-info: Prints informations about running JACK servers The package appears to be lintian clean. My motivation for maintaining this package is: I am one of the upstream authors. I have other related packages that will be ready to upload soon. Debian and Ubuntu are my favourite operating system. I want to become a package maintainer and some day a Debian developer. I am a free software enthusiast. The package can be found on mentors.debian.net: - URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/scenic - Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main contrib non-free - dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/scenic/scenic_0.5.10-2.dsc - Page on mentors: http://mentors.debian.net/cgi-bin/sponsor-pkglist?action=details;package=scenic NOTE: The current version on mentors is 0.5.10-2, but I should release a 0.5.11-1 soon. (see on mentors.debian.net) I want to fix issues that the mentor might point and release the 0.6.0-1 version for uploading it to Debian.
