Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "healpix-cxx". It is one of a suite 
of three related packages providing C, C++, and Python interfaces for HEALPix 
(Hierarchical Equal Area isoLatitude Pixelization). HEALPix is a map projection 
and indexing scheme for representing data on the unit sphere, commonly used to 
store all-sky astronomical images or databases, including cosmic microwave 
background maps and all-sky survey images.

I am currently a graduate student at California Institute of Technology, and 
the experiment that I work on (LIGO; http://www.ligo.org) is planning to 
release some public data in HEALPix format---hence my interest in providing 
Debian packages. I have contributed build-related code upstream for all three 
packages and I maintain their respective Mac OS packages in MacPorts.

The C++ package is:

* Package name    : healpix-cxx
Version         : 3.11.2-1
Upstream Author : Martin Reinecke <mar...@mpa-garching.mpg.de>
* URL             : http://healpix.sourceforge.net
* License         : GPL-2+
Section         : libs

It builds these binary packages:

healpix-cxx - C++ command line tools for HEALPix
libhealpix-cxx-dev - shared library for C++ interface to HEALPix
libhealpix-cxx0 - static library and headers for C++ interface to HEALPix

To access further information about this package, please visit the following

And for the C and Python libraries, please refer to:

http://mentors.debian.net/package/healpix-cxx
http://mentors.debian.net/package/healpy

Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command:

dget -x
