Artha - Handy off-line English thesaurus with regex search feature released!
Dear friends, I am glad to announce release 0.9.1 of Artha ~ A handy off-line English thesaurus/dictionary based on WordNet with regular expressions based search feature added to it with this release. Artha houses distinct features like global hot key look-ups, regular expressions based search to locate a vaguely known word, passive desktop notifications, suggestions for misspelled words, etc. Once executed, it sits on the system tray monitoring for a pre-set hot key combination. When the user selects text from any window and presses this hot key, Artha pops-up with the word looked up. Should the user prefer passive notifications over the app. popping-up, Artha's 'Notify' option does this. Apart from showing definitions, it also shows Synonyms, Antonyms, Derivatives, Similar Terms, Attributes, Domain Terms, Pertainyms and 5 more. When a word is misspelled, it shows spelling suggestions too. Download (src and binaries): http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=250410 Code (release 0.9.1): svn co http://artha.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/artha/tags/0.9.1 Thanks! P.S.: This is my first open-source application. Thanks for all the support you guys gave me! Best Regards Sundaram

Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Steffen Moeller * Package name: r-other-mott-happy Version : 2.1 Upstream Author : Richard Mott * URL : http://www.well.ox.ac.uk/happy/happyR.shtml. * License : GPL-2+ Programming Lang: C,R Description : GNU R package for fine-mapping complex diseases The idea behind this package is that when multiple strains of animals that differ in their susceptibility to multiple diseases are bread over multiple generations, then one can analyse the contribution that a particular genetic locus has to each of those diseases. While in the past this approach has been performed for one disease at a time, this tool extends the statistics for allowing multiple crosses and thus save animal lifes. A larger stock of animals with more generations to keep them will further help producing larger numbers of observable cross-over events and thus help increasing the resolution of the mapping. . happy is an R interface into the HAPPY C package for fine-mapping Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL) in Heterogenous Stocks (HS). An HS is an advanced intercross between (usually eight) founder inbred strains of mice. HS are suitable for fine-mapping QTL. The happy package is an extension of the original C program happy; it uses the C code to compute the probability of descent from each of the founders, at each locus position, but the happy packager allows a much richer range of models to be fit to the data. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Not everyone has access to an debian.org machine, and @packages.debian.org is the address used in debconf po files for reporting messageID bugs to.

The debian-l10n-english team, and perhaps others, use this domain to keep the maintainer in the loop during Smith English-language reviews and the subsequent translations.

> I haven't done an exhaustive survey, but it seems pretty clear so far > that the domain does not get any significant amount of legitimate mail > from machines other than the debian.org hosts. As I understand it, @packages.d.o is the standard way of contacting the maintainers of a package in an easy and efficient way. I use it all the time when eg. reassigning a bug (reassign mails are supposed to be CC'ed to the destination maintainers), rather than go up and look who's listed as maintainer and uploader and CC them all. Plus, fortunately, packages.d.o has been sending a copy to the PTS for some time now, so even interested people who are not listed as maintainer/uploader will be able to read them. Personally, I think we should keep it open. If it becomes unsustainable, we could require a whitelist header for mail sent from non debian.org machines, like the PTS does. But if we do that, we could ditch it altogether and just use the PTS (for me, one of the main advantages of packages.d.o is not having to include the whitelist header). Does somebody know if the PTS is mailing the maintainers already?

These are the sort of helpful answers that make it clear that people do at least sporadically use the service. I didn't see anything useful in the week of logs I reviewed, but activity like that described above is probably reasonably 'spiky' and I'm not surprised I missed it. It sounds like the service should probably stay open. I would have been happy to restrict something that is only a spam attractor, but if it's more than that, than I'm happy people find it a useful service. If the teams who do use it think it can still be useful and be restricted, that's a discussion I still think is worth having, but I don't think we need to rush towards it.

Whenever users contact me privately regarding a package, I encourage them to instead target the package email address, so that fellow maintainers of team-maintained packages receive them as well. I am not against dropping/limiting the package email addresses, just saying that in addition to the concrete amount of mail it might also be relevant to take into account the expectation of such account existing, even if used less frequently. And the convenience of telling users to simply _email_ the package, instead of explaining them how to _find_ the email address from packaging metadata. Kind regards, - Jonas P.S.
