Bug#513428: RFA: gmime2.2 -- MIME library - development files

[Guus Sliepen]

Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I request an adopter for the gmime2.2 package.

The package description is:
 GMime is a set of utilities for parsing and creating messages using
 the Multipurpose Internet Mail Extension (MIME).

It has bindings for C and for C# (Mono). It is used by a number of projects,
including Beagle, Tomboy, Balsa.

I maintained this package because I used it in some of my own C code.  However,
I personally cannot see anymore why anyone would want to work with GObject/Glib
style C APIs. Since I will not be using it anymore, I do not think I should be
its maintainer any longer.

I hope someone or some group that has experience with such libraries will adopt
this project.  Mirco Bauer (meebey), one of the Uploaders of this package,
wants to help maintaining C# part of the package.  He is willing to join the
GNOME team if necessary.
