Bug#823141: RFP: timeline -- An application to show events on a timeline

Cross-posted to 2 groups.

Hi,

I have filed an RFP

	https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=823141

(I would rather name those WFP - Wish For Packaging, but, oh
well) for a Python based timeline application

	http://thetimelineproj.sourceforge.net

Contrary to the report it would need to be named, say,

	thetimelineproj
	py-timeline
	pytimeline
	timelinenavigator

or some such because Mattia Rizzolo pointed out that
"timeline" already exists

	https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/timeline

as a source package (not that I think that that's a good fit
for a generic mozilla extension source package but first
come first serve I guess ... :)

Upstream agrees that "timeline" is too generic a name.

	https://sourceforge.net/p/thetimelineproj/mailman/message/35055472/

I wondered whether someone in "pkg-python-apps" would have
the resources and interest to maintain a package. Matthia
suggested I contact this list to find out.

Note that I don't _expect_ people to devote time and energy
just because I think that'd be useful but unless I ask I
can't know :-)

Upstream's installation instructions are here:

	http://thetimelineproj.sourceforge.net/installing.html

Fedora does have a package (Ubuntu does not):

	https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/package/rpms/timeline/

There's an unmet dependancy on humblewx

	https://github.com/thetimelineproj/humblewx

which is available from PyPI, however:

	https://pypi.python.org/pypi/humblewx

	Metadata-Version: 1.0
	Name: humblewx
	Version: 0.2.1
	Summary: Library that simplifies creating user interfaces with wxPython.

Anything else I can provide ?
