Contrib: Packages Review: "iperf"

14 Sep 2008

      Hi All !

This is 3rd attempt to review a package.

There was old topic, but I decided to create a new one, to stay focused.

I have a proposal package review - and proposal package review procedure.

Example package review:
===============================================
"iperf" - IP Performance benchmark

Description:
Iperf is a tool to measure maximum TCP bandwidth, allowing the tuning of
various parameters and UDP characteristics. Iperf reports bandwidth, delay
jitter, datagram loss.

This package is in OBS.
Current maintainer: James Oakley (James also interested in
contributing to "contrib" repo, so he may become a package maintainer)
Alternative maintainer: me (Alexey Eromenko "Technologov") (if James
don't wan't or can't support his child package)

URL         : http://dast.nlanr.net/Projects/Iperf/
URL 2 : http://sourceforge.net/projects/iperf
License: custom OSS-compatible, BSD-like
(http://dast.nlanr.net/Projects/Iperf/ui_license.html)
Latest update: v2.0.4 Apr 2008 (which means, that package is maintained)

OBS URL: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/jimfunk/openSUSE_11.0/src/
Testing: Package received some testing from me. Everything tested
found to work. No crashes.
===============================================
1. What do you think of the review process
2. What do you think of the package

--------------------------
In the previous set no one had any objection over the package - except
maintenance.

I think if no objection will happen now we will link (or copy) this
package right from James Oakley OBS into contrib.
