Bug#589818: ensembl-core -- Ensembl core Perl API

2010-08-29 Thread Steffen Moeller
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Steffen Moeller 

Hello,

I just spotted your ITP for the ensembl-core module when I was
about to submit them same fpr our local effort towards a package
for an Ensembl web server.

Some further in-depth tests of its functionality are still
pending, but what we now have one
svn+ssh://svn.debian.org/svn/debian-med/trunk/packages/ensembl/ensembl
within the Debian Med repository that seems fine and the Ensembl
core API is a part of that.

We have so far prepared the packages ensembl, ensembl-bin
(collecting the bits that were compiled) and ensembl-doc. 
Because of your distinct interest in the core API, we will now
also prepare an ensembl-core package. It would be lovely if
we could share the effort to finalise that (and the other)
package(s). Would you have your Debian directory available
for me to inspect?

For the best possible experience with the package, we had prepared
a series of additional packages for Debian, some of which
being older version of well established Perl libraries. The
most prominent one is probably BioPerl1.2.3, others are 
libwww5.808 or libparallel-useragent. Those are still in the
Debian New Queue.

If you are not yet aware fo Debian Med, please check out
http://debian-med.alioth.debian.org
and for joining just send me your alioth user id, please.

Hoping for a nice collaboration on Ensembl and many further
biomolecular Debian packages, with best regards

Steffen

The package name should somehow include fglrx, IMO.

Already uploaded to NEW.

xvba-video is the right source package name, the binary package is named 
xvba-va-driver (same way as the nvidia VA driver: vdpau-va-driver).
The package description already mentions, that it is ATI/AMD specific. 
Users who want to activate this feature also know, that the AMD 
implementation of VA is named xvba :)


I don't see any problems with that name.

That means either you uploaded too soon or ITPed too late.  Nothing I
can do about that.

vdpau-va-driver has
Provides: nvidia-va-driver, s3g-va-driver, va-driver, vdpau-video
and is in main.  That doesn't sound nvidia-specific to me.

"ATI/AMD specific" doesn't say anything about it requiring the use of
the fglrx X driver.  So yeah, the description needs to be improved as
well.

I do.

I didn't know. Therefore your assumption is wrong. Please add more words
mentioning something that most users would want to do with it, like
"fglrx" "AVC" "acceleration".

Bug#594834: ITP: cicero -- French and English Text-To-Speech for MBROLA

2010-08-29 Thread Samuel Thibault
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Samuel Thibault 


* Package name: cicero
  Version : 0.7.2
  Upstream Author : Nicolas Pitre 
* URL : http://pages.infinit.net/fluxnic/cicero/
* License : GPLv2, but depends on non-free MBROLA, thus targetting 
contrib.
  Programming Lang: Python
  Description : French and English Text-To-Speech for MBROLA

This Text-To-Speech (TTS) engine speaks French; a preliminary English support
is also offered.
The engine uses context-sensitive rules to produce phonemes from the text. It
relies on MBROLA to generate actual audio output from the phonemes. The TTS
engine is implemented using the Python programming language.

The upstream authors have come up with this TTS to try and meet their own needs
as blind users.
It's designed to be plugged as output to some screen-review software, firstly
with BRLTTY.
They favor speed and intelligibility over perfect pronunciation.
Cicero is aimed to have a quick response time, the ability to quickly shut-up
and skip to another utterance, intelligibility where it counts (not perfect
pronunciation), the ability to track speech progression, relative simplicity
(hackability) and relative small code size.
