Package: wnpp Severity: normal
I intend to orphan the curator package. In consensus with my sponsor, Andreas Tille, I've come to the conclusion that Debian would be better of without curator because a) it's abandoned upstream for a long time now b) jigl offers a great alternative to curator and has solved a lot of the shortcomings of curator. c) popcon results are low. To be fair to the 27 regular users of curator I'm orphaning the package to give you a chance to stand up and take it over if you really, really want to keep it. If nobody steps up very soon I'll request the removal of curator in early April. So if you wan't it please take into account that you've to fix every problem with the curator script on your own. There is nobody avaible upstream to help you. I recommend to switch to jigl now and let curator die. The package description is: Curator is a powerful script that allows one to generate Web page image galleries with the intent of displaying photographic images on the Web, or for a CD-ROM presentation and archiving. . It generates static Web pages only - no special configuration or running scripts are required on the server. The script supports many file formats, hierarchical directories, thumbnail generation and update, per-image description file with any attributes, and 'tracks' of images spanning multiple directories. The templates consist of HTML with embedded Python. Running this script only requires a recent Python interpreter and the ImageMagick tools. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.24-1-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
