[Pkg-octave-devel] Request for sponsorship (SUNDIALS suit)

[Andrey Romanenko]

Hello,

I have packaged SUNDIALS suit of Nonlinear and DIfferential/ALgebraic
 equation Solvers from http://www.llnl.gov/CASC/sundials/ that I use in my
 work and I thought it would be of interest for many users if it was part of
 Debian. It comes under the BSD license. To my knowledge, it includes the
 only free IVP solver (CVODES) with  forward and adjoint sensitivity analysis
 capabilities.

In particular, John Eaton is working on an interface between Octave and the
SUNDIALS solvers. Would anybody here be interested in sponsoring this package 
into Debian? John suggested that since it is connected to Octave, maybe it 
can be maintained with a connection to the Debian Octave Group.

Thank you very much.

Regards,
Andrey Romanenko
