* Package name : mallard-ducktype (binaries: ducktype, python3-mallard.ducktype) Version : 0.3 Upstream Author : Shaun McCance * URL : http://projectmallard.org/ https://github.com/projectmallard/mallard-ducktype * License : Expat (MIT/X11) Programming Lang: Python Description : Parser for Ducktype, a lightweight documentation syntax Ducktype is a lightweight non-XML syntax for Mallard, a topic-oriented markup language for help files. Mallard is primarily used in GNOME help. The ducktype package contains the ducktype command-line tool, which can be used to convert Ducktype documents into the Mallard XML format for further processing by the tools and stylesheets in the yelp-tools and yelp-xsl packages. The python3-mallard.ducktype package contains the Python 3 library. Ducktype is used for a document in dbus providing D-Bus API design advice, which we don't yet ship in Debian. It might be used for help files in GNOME in future, but as far as I know all GNOME apps use the XML variant of Mallard at the moment. I intend to maintain this in the GNOME team, or possibly the Python Modules team when they switch to gbp-pq and salsa.debian.org. Co-maintainers welcome (indeed, sole maintainers welcome if someone wants to take this away from me).
