Package name: arrowhead Version : 1.0 Upstream Author : Zygmunt Krynicki <zygmunt.krynicki@canonical.com> URL : https://github.com/zyga/arrowhead/ License : BSD-3-clause Programming Lang: python Description : micro-framework for flowchart-like computing Arrowhead is a framework for constructing flow charts composed of steps connected by (possibly) conditional branches. Such flows can be executed, inspected (at runtime) and visualized (for documentation and verification) . The idea of flowchart computing is designed in a way that mimics a hand-made drawing, typically on a white-board or a piece of paper, that describes some process as a graph of interconnected steps. . Traditionally, once designed, the process is implemented as a collection of functions and classes. Very often the original idea of the process was supposed to work lost, especially after making changes over time. Usually it is impossible to easily reconstruct the initial idea from a complex implementation of that idea. . As an added issue, it is non-trivial to create derivative processes that somehow override, change, replace or remove parts of the process. This can affect one step or a particular group of steps. . The arrowhead framework aims to address both problems. . This package contains the python3 version of this library. This package is an upcoming dependency of the plainbox package. Is also useful to the re-emerging field of dataflow-driven computing and all kinds of flow computing in general. There are no similar packages in Debian that I could find (this is why I also created arrowhead in the first place). I will gladly co-maintain it in DPMT, along with my other packages.
retitle 748677 RFP: arrowhead -- micro-framework for flowchart-like computing noowner 748677 tag 748677 - pending thanks Hi, A long time ago, you expressed interest in packaging arrowhead. Unfortunately, it seems that it did not happen. In Debian, we try not to keep ITP bugs open for a too long time, as it might cause other prospective maintainers to refrain from packaging the software. This is an automatic email to change the status of arrowhead from ITP (Intent to Package) to RFP (Request for Package), because this bug hasn't seen any activity during the last 12 months. If you are still interested in packaging arrowhead, please send a mail to <control@bugs.debian.org> with: retitle 748677 ITP: arrowhead -- micro-framework for flowchart-like computing owner 748677 ! thanks It is also a good idea to document your progress on this ITP from time to time, by mailing <748677@bugs.debian.org>. If you need guidance on how to package this software, please reply to this email, and/or contact the debian-mentors@lists.debian.org mailing list. Thank you for your interest in Debian,
