 The IUCN Global Species Programme working with the IUCN Species Survival

 subspecies, varieties, and even selected subpopulations on a global

 extinction, and thereby promote their conservation.

  Description : A viewer for .stl files

Quoting from the project homepage:

> fstl is a viewer for .stl files.
> It is optimized to quickly load and render very high-polygon models.

I plan to work on an ITP for antimony as well, so I consider a compact
stl viewer a useful prerequisite.

I will upload a first version of this package on mentors soon. I will
need a sponsor for it.



Bug#819330: ITP: maim -- maim takes screenshots of your desktop

  Description : maim takes screenshots of your desktop

maim (make image) takes screenshots of your desktop. It has options to take
only a region, and relies on slop to query for regions. maim is supposed to be
an improved scrot.

I use maim on a daily basis to generate screenshots and share them with
colleagues. It is a minimal yet very useful package.

I intend to maintain it alone for the moment.
