Hi,

I'm a Senior DevOps Engineer (or SysAdmin for the less buzzword
inclined) who has been active on the CentOS mailing lists, IRC and
lurking around the Fedora mailing lists for some time - with the
occasional input.

I was keeping an eye out on a particular package that I wanted to use
on some systems which was going through review but then stalled when
the original submitter unfortunately stopped responding to requests.

I've just submitted the package - sslh - in line with the new packager
guidelines and as a new packager am seeking a sponsor.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1203476

The package has built against f21, f22 and rawhide in koji scratch
builds and has been tested as a systemd service on my local system.

After any clean up needed to make it through I plan to build on this
and work with the original developer, if he is willing, to provide
further tuning such as utilising socket activation and confining the
daemon with selinux.

Thank you for your time and any help you can provide.

Kind regards,

James Hogarth
