Bug#601553: libnet-nationalrail-livedepartureboards-perl: SOAP API not stable

[Tim Retout]

Package: libnet-nationalrail-livedepartureboards-perl
Version: 0.02-1
Severity: serious
Justification: maintainer's opinion

A notice has recently appeared on the API documentation web page:

"With affect from Tuesday the 23rd of November, National Rail
Enquiries will be introducing tokens in to SOAP header of the Darwin
Webservice for licenced users of the system. For more information on
licencing and obtaining a token, please contact nrelicensing at atoc.org"

 -- http://www.livedepartureboards.co.uk/ldbws/

This suggests that the Perl module will break after that date.  Even
if I obtain an API token, which is currently looking unlikely, I will
have to make a new upstream release to support it.  It could be argued
that the package should be moved to 'contrib' at that point, but I
don't have a firm opinion yet.

Anyway, I don't want this in a stable release.
