Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for the following package:

* Package name    : ismrmrd
  Version         : 0.5.0
  Upstream Author : Michael S. Hansen <michael.hansen@nih.gov>
* URL             : http://ismrmrd.sourceforge.net/
* License         : MIT
  Programming Lang: C++
  Description     : ISMRM Raw Data Format

A prerequisite for sharing magnetic resonance (imaging) reconstruction
algorithms and code is a common raw data format. This standard was
developed by a subcommittee of the ISMRM Sedona 2013 workshop. The
ISMRMRD library is an implementation of this standard.

The ISMRMRD format combines a mix of flexible data structures (XML
header) and fixed structures (equivalent to C-structs) to represent MRI
data.


I have uploaded the package to the following Debian science git
repository:
http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=debian-science/packages/ismrmrd.git

updated the SoB wiki page:
